Hello,
        If you know thta you are going to do that I would get a late model 
roadster without the running gear.  Or get a 1600 as they are usualy cheaper
than 2000's.  69's and 70's are probabaly what you want.  Low windshields are
rarer and more expensive and parts are harder to get I would say.
