Buying, restoring a car is like any other hobby it cost money takes time and is enjoyable. If its what you want to do then by all means do it. Any hobby or leisure activity takes money you are the best person to determine how much is the right amount for you. The good thing about any old car is you will more than likely spend a lot of time at home or wherever the project is located. With that part of the project you will be close to your family maybe only a wall or two seperating you from them. Your better half will be close by. Your children may or may not enjoy your hobby / habit. You will be remember as the guy who had the old Packard or whatever long after you have completed it. You will have the memories of having done all the little projects that happen during the work. You will be able to pass that information on to sites like this and others. Its a learning experience which will cost money but has rewards you can't put a price on. All hobbies cost a lot more money than you think they will in the beginning. My opinion is that I'm worth what it costs. The bottom line is ask others opinion but do what you think is correct for your situation.
