Default Re: '69 X77 302DZ Camaro Barn Find

If the car is for yourself, getting upside down is not the end of the world. Many people (myself included) can't afford a completely done, well restored 69 Z. Hopefully, when it is done, you know the car is done right because you weren't forced to cut corners. (Or purchasing someone else's slap together for resale project) Basicly, you are making payments to yourself. In the end it costs more, but you are able to have something that you may otherwise not be able to have.

I'm not saying that this is the case in this situation, just that may people do buy project cars for this reason.

In this day and age of fraud, faked build sheets and restamped blocks, I'd sooner buy a car in project form where you can see more evidence of the cars pedigree in undisturbed form, even if it means sinking a little more money into it to restore of have it restored. This way you can be a part of the restoration, and you know what you have. Plus it sounds like you got a heck of a deal on this one, so congrats.
