I bought my first project car (67 FB) about a year after I graduated, and by that time I was married and with kids too. I got it finished within a few years, so it can be done.

Thinking back to those days, I was young and very inexperienced, working out of books and magazines with the advice of the few Pontiac guys I found around town. Way before the internet. Amazing what I took on and accomplished back then. Ended up with a car that was in "local show" condition and would run 13's, and it was a reliable daily driver.

Your tail lenses and wheels really look great, just keep on doing what you are doing and you will get there. And congrats on finishing up college! Based on my experience it should definitely help with funding this sort of project.
