I've acquired a few unfinished projects in my time. They are almost always a great deal. Somebody orders / buys all the parts, plans the build, then underestimates the time/money it takes to finish, or life gets in the way, and it sits there.

Friend of mine scored a Chevelle project that way a while back. The guy bought the car (decent driver) and wasn’t much of a car guy. Turns out the thing had some major filler and rust issues. He ended up buying all new panels, interior, engine, transmission etc etc. He basically said he wanted EVERY part on hand before he started the actual resto. (Must be nice to have that kind of money to play with). So he did that. The week he started tearing the car apart his wife got pregnant. Twins.

Car sat for a year or so. My buddy scored it for about the price the guy paid originally for the car without the parts.

Good luck!
