Restoring this car:
Of course, it's driveable...providing you can resist all the wobbling the car make due to the rims all screwed up...
I sure love driving it!
So far, I've done an engine swap, since the original engine was busted...so now, I have the LB8 2.8L engine, comparing to the LC1 that came with it. Horsepower wise? Instead of 103HP, I have 137HP...but it's for now. I plan to shove in either an L98 350, or find a stroked 350 (GM 383 stroker).
$900 was the cost, $1300 for the engine swap and extra parts needed. I still have a long way to go...but I believe it's better to restore a car to your own taste, rather than having it already restored...and it makes it an extra challenge.
