Besides the nice body, I see everything having to be torn down and gone through, transmission, engine, cooling system, wiring and especially the rear end. If you can do it all yourself, under $10,000, if not, more than double that

Or you could just get in and drive the Hell out of it and enjoy it! And not worry if you have to use a lug wrench or a hammer to take a tire off. With #110 it is past the "prototype" cars and should be very good and a whole lotta fun.
