Thanks for the reality check Boostin, but I feel very strongly about keeping this car for a really long time. I'll prolly have it until it's considered a real "classic", 25 years old or more.

I'm prepared to spend around $20K on everything, including the interior, $2000 suspension, engine work, sounds, rw conversion, and paint. Nothing will stray me from doing this, unless I decide to put a nice down payment on a house or something.
