"You are looking into buying a 62 Sport Roaster." You are also looking into a money pit. You need an appraiser to evaluate the car for initial price and evaluation of engine/transmission/brakes/top/frame/suspension etc. etc. Do you have the trainng , education , experience , determination energy and time to correctly and safely restore at least most of the car or will you have to "farm it out " to a mechanic and/or bodyman? Ask a local bodyman and mechanic to look it over to get a ballpark restoration $ estimate . Don't want to discourage you from such a great adventure, but eyes wide open at this point will improve chances of a successful project
