I don't thing you realize how much work this is. I also doubt you could buy all the parts for the price of a running or almost running car.

I know people who have gotten cars that still run for less than $400. Find something like that and fix it with junk parts.

If you have a group of friends (at least three, pref. six) including one master mechanic and have at least three years to kill, go for it. Otherwise, just listen to "One Piece At a Time" (Johnny Cash). Major timesuck and you'll need $10K+ worth of tools in addition to parts even with Harbor Freight.
