Once this CSX is rebuilt, potentially with a new drivetrain and interior, maybe gauges (?), wiring harness (?), paint (?), who knows what else, your cost basis could grow to twice your original investment.

If I'm "all in" at $80K, then I don't think 40K is a good buy, but that's JMHO. Of course, if you have the skills, knowledge and tools to do most of, if not, all the work, then it might look like a better "investment."
