Well my plan is to do this over 3-5 years. I don't have the kind of bank to have this done inside one year. Especially with the learning curve. I have some friends who have built drag cars, but this is a bit different. My main issue is the metal work that will likely need to be done. I can help with body work, engine work, electrical. But metal work, I'd have to have someone teach me how to do that.

And we expect a thread in 3-5 years sir.

Good luck.

Expand your time frame to 2x, cars been sitting for 50 years, what's another 5?

Mig welding ain't hard. I got a barely used 210amp Hobart with the bottle, gun, and two reels for $1300. I can weld just about anything I need to. YouTube will teach you technique and settings. Body panels can be purchased if you don't want to roll or patch.

If the rest of these assholes in the comments would stop their projects it'd be cheaper for us
