Build or buy?

[James OLC]

One thing to consider if you are going to buy a clean, running car as a foundation is to have a good idea what you want in the end and avoid paying up front for something that has no value to you. If you are planning on an LS swap in the near future don't bother paying a premium for a numbers matching or survivor car up front... You're paying for something that has no value to you but is worth something to the seller and someone else. Look at older projects, drag cars, and non-original stuff.



Building the car is part of the fun and while there are lots of deals to be had on finished projects, consider what you want to get out of the experience and ask yourself if you will be bothered by stuff that is not done the way you would have done it.
