Restored with a year one catalog, so it looks great at a local car show? Cost ya $50-60,000

or

Restored with hard to find original NOS parts to a level so that it can be judged at GTOAA concours by someone who knows original bolts, clips and component finishes? $100,000 restoration.

Either way I have never seen a 4bbl. '64 pull more than 40k on the market - real nice ones.

If you can get it, see if the engine is frozen. Go out in the garage and get it started, change the brake lines, the clutch, the fuel tank. Clean it up, involve your kids if you have any. Don't paint it - PATINA is cooler than nice paint these days. It's a rat muscle contender for sure. But no resto candidate. Trust me, you'll have more fun.
