is this worth $2000 update with pics

sound like a major project you will get sick of before you get it running.
buy one running.
have some fun.
sounds to be in better shape than my car, and i dont think mine is a major project. that is an opinion that is subjective. a cam swap could be a major project to some and i call it a fun afternoon.where others would call a full body off resto just another day at work. and i would call it a major project.

so therefor, its hard to say weather he would get bored or not.
