This is very true, the people who are telling you about all the pitfalls are the one who have done it. They know how much time and money it takes. They know the skills that are needed, the parts to be sourced, the shops to be contracted. This is not for the faint of spirit, or the lite of wallet. If you don't have the $12k to buy it, how will you fund the minimum $40-50k to fix it. This is the question you have to answer for yourself. Yes it would be great to save this longhood, but are you up to it? You know the answer, now accept it and move on.
