which to do

I have always wanted to build a hemi A body. I am gathering the parts to build another hemi and I am coming together in a timely manner with those parts. My thinking has been, maybe 1 day I will have a real hemi car and I could put this motor in and pull the original if it was a numbers car. I dont have money falling out my butt and I work a lot of overtime to pay for my hobby, no credit. Not overtime= no car parts.

So with the price of building a hemi A body do you feel a person is better of to just put that money toward an original hemi car? I am partial to a strip down, elcheapo, base model 66-67 B body.

What's your input?
