it doesn't look like a bad car from what pics you posted, although the wheels and paint are dated. the big question is the build quality, and how has any wear affected it. the engine choice just may be what would work for you. only you can be the judge of that. and has been stated, pro street cars are not for everyone. be aware they may be way different than something you may be comfortable in after the huge tire "effect" is in your garage for a time. have you ever ridden in, or drove a pro-streeter ? saying this, i happen to like the looks and quirks of such an animal, but my opinion of these things is they better run as good as they appear. this type of car was my vision back in 1973-74 when i drug my humpback out of the swamp, and even though it still isn't finished, and my agility is greatly diminished from that time in history, the build is still progressing in the same direction. just my opinion[s]. your mileage may vary.
