Thinking about selling 2 Impractical Cars to Build One!

If you use a donor car, and use all 5.0 parts, and the 5.0 motor....it won't sell for nearly as much. I've seen alot of those around for sale around 17-20g's. I know you said you weren't going to use a T-5 or a small block, but I just thought about giving you a little bit of motivation to use BIG BLOCK. And another point if you don't use a donor car, all those lil pieces are going to add up to big bucks if you have to buy them seperate. Especially if you use all the top of the line stuff. It's alot quicker and easier to just buy a donor 5.0 and do the swapping with all the parts, but the ? is who wants to be like everyone else? No-one really.

-1989 GT, not stock.
