Nobody huh? I also learned its a factory black paint/red interior, and they'll throw in a 62 tri power setup with carbs if I pay asking price which is under 5k.

Engine Ear is the resident '62 expert, but I will throw in that basically if you are even ASKING about $ it is not going to be worth it to you. In terms of cost to build Vs final value, I would say conservatively that it will cost you double to build that car compared to what you will end up being able to sell it for. With virtually no aftermarket parts available, it is going to have to be a project you do because you absolutely love '62s and don't care about what it is ultimately worth.

Contemplate sincerely and take constructively Deadhead's words of wisdom, because they are.

But $5k for a western Cat ragtop as shown (with a 'spare 3x2') sounds fair if I (as a '62 enthusiast) were in the market for such a project.

Good luck and lettuce know what happens!

I negotiated a deal with them. Very nice and forthcoming with my barrage of questions. Everything is included, including some extras. She specifically mentioned trim and there is also a complete extra front clip including the hood. I have no clue where I'm gonna put that.

I offered them "close" to their offering price and still talked them into throwing in the "extra" 3x2 setup. I got the whole shebang for 4300.
