Looking For Budget Project Car Ideas

[derekf]

I don't really have a dog in this race as I let all my car magazine subscriptions lapse years ago.

However, if the goal is to do a "budget build" and you want to get my attention enough to pick up a copy of the magazine do a true budget build. I don't CARE what body it wears, but the budget builds I'd seen in the magazine where "we bought part x from such and such, and part y from so and so" aren't so much budget. How about one where every part short of consumables (belts, hoses, plugs) comes from a salvage yard, where the parts are adapted to fit old-school hotrodding style?
