Default muscle car restoration

So how many of you have restored an american muscle car? Me and my mom might be buying a 69' camaro, so I was just curious. What do you think of the idea? I will get pictures when i can.

Me and my dad did a 67 GTO. Took 5 years. It was good bonding time and a good learning experience. I think it's a great idea.

Here is some pictures of it. What do you all think If we get it I will be selling my banshee to buy it. Give me your opinions it also comes with a 327 to put in it.

looks perfect for a restoration car, just make sure you get the whole car sand blasted so you can see what the rust damage is under the paint... unless you only want to go like a half restore, i like doing ground up restorations myself..

i would buy it
