POSTER: Disciple of Pain VEHICLE: 1963 Ford Fairlane 500 GOAL: Finish a project for once. Make a low-budget rat-rod style driver for fun and probably profit. DIFFICULTY: Nothing crazy. Motor is good, no major rust. I'm prepared to tackle everything else. Some welding on the body and possibly swapping the odd-ball 221 V8 for a 289 or 302. COSTS: Car: $600. Parts, Supplies, Transport, etc: Spent - $100. Planned Future Expenses (for making it a safe, reliable driver without swapping the motor/trans) - $250. Total - <$1000 LINK:

POSTER: Disciple of Pain VEHICLE: Mag-One 1978 Toyota Celica GT GOAL: Build a budget-friendly and fun-to-drive rallycross car. DIFFICULTY: Depends on how much I break! COSTS: Car: $350, Parts so far: $63 (car is ready to race although there are a few more things I will want to do before the first event - mudflaps, valve cover gasket, etc) LINK: The Neverending Quest for a Rally Car... 1978 Celica GT?

POSTER: Disciple of Pain VEHICLE: 1974 Volkswagen Station Wagon Kombi Walkthrough (AKA a non-camper VW Bus) GOAL: Something to bop around town in during restoration. Eventually I would like to make it into a "weekender" camper (no pop-top). Possibly with some Camper model parts, some stuff I will make myself. DIFFICULTY: Not too bad at all, but who knows. Its a VW, so nothing is too difficult. COSTS: Bus will cost either $600 (with just the front seats and no rear interior), or $700 (with all of the interior parts out of a '73 European model Westphalia camper). LINK: I'll make a thread soon. This is kind of a placeholder, right now I just have $100 down on it until I get paid and can go pick it up on Friday. It doesn't have a windshield currently installed, so it should be an interesting 11.3 mile drive home (it is in my town, I will try to stick to side-streets as much as possible).
