I have a box that has around 4 sets of hubcaps so thats not a problem. I don't plan to sell anything or really jump into anything until I get a good understanding of what I need and what needs to be done and like I said everything needs to be done right when its complete.

first, don't sell it. make a plan for it. My 69S is a total basketcase, but being a 1-off car, I can never sell it even though it will take years before it's on the road again. I would sorely regret selling it, though I have seriously considered it on several occasions, and have buyers lined up, just could never get past the instant regret which would become lifelong regret.

if you do sell it, I suggest:
X = your purchase price
Y = selling price

You get 2X
Your friend gets Y-2X, which I'm guessing would be several multiples of X.
