I'm looking at picking up a project car from a guy that died at a dirt cheap price and finishing the restoration...it's in pieces...so what do you say ST...cool or lame?

How much would it need to be restored? Does it have head-on-collision-into-trees type of damage?

Nah, no damage, just a 40 year old fiberglass body that needs a bunch of cosmetic work plus its literally in pieces...It will need a BUNCH of work but the guy has already spent big bucks on the motor...supposedly 200hp balanced and blueprinted.

You're buying Randy Savage's dune buggy?

Whatever, I'll send you the ad. Just take a handfull of $100 bills and you too can finally be cool.

The one in the pic is cool. Doing a frame up restoration and having a dune buggy afterward, not cool.
