Advice please..

Well, after owning my duster I am not sure if I want to get involved with such a big project. Neither me or my dad would be capable of doing the body work, and with all the problems it would be 3k minimum...then I need paint, the all the mechanical (and other things...rims, cosmetics, interior). To get a decent driver would take a bit. Here is a link to the car...http://forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=39007.

I posted it in the FS section with no interest, my dad says the car is worth 2k, but I say about $1750...I know at least one person said that 1.75k is reasonable. But honestly do you guys thing that I could get that?
I honestly would love a dart/duster 72 or below. I would be interested in something like this http://hartford.craigslist.org/car/746658229.html, a 70 dart, 4.5k but negotiable, body work done and in primer...I am not sure what to do...

Am I dreaming with my price? I would just like to get something more solid of a project.

Oh by the way...how much do you reckon a radiator would run me, a used one...the day I got it they gave me it separate, and we put it on the deck of a cottage my mom has in the next town over, a week later gone.

I can't even drive (legally) due to a DUI so the fun for me right now is restoration and seeing if I can have my car in decent shape by the time I get my license.

But there's a fine line between a challenge and frustration, if it's too much for you right now, clean it up and try to get it running and ask $2-3k or b/o and see what kind of response you get.

Then put that to a car that doesn't need so much work. That's probably what I'd do.

Well that is what I was thinking, seeing how I don't do anything pretty much all day (I am still only 16 so I get the summer off, looking for a job though). I figure if I put the other tank in, find a radiator (hopefully at carlisle) and get it running then I would try to sell it.
