Hi Taylor,

After getting roadsters and working on them, I have next to nothing when it 
comes to money! The best recommendation I've heard, is to get the best 
roadster you can for your money. Better to pay big bucks for something that 
is 90 per cent there. It will be cheaper in the long run. For example, get 
a 2000 runner in decent condition for $4000 or more. If you get a 
non-runner for $500 to $1500, it could cost you $4000 or more and may be an 
endless ordeal.

It's your call, and it all depends on how soon you want to enjoy the ride. 
Bargains can be had, so keep looking for that rough diamond that won't take much
to restore. Don't settle for junk. I've been there and done that when I was 16, 
restoring a junker '56 Chevy.
