Hey everyone,
New guy on the forum, been looking at roadsters for the last couple months. I've built a couple jeeps and am excited for the roadster change of pace.
After looking online for a while, a 64 popped up locally. Body was soda blasted and comes with brakes, suspension, steering, and a few other bits. No driveline, which is the main concern.
I'll post up some findings, but it's looking like a great start for this project.

Welcome!
Sounds like some big $$$ is already out of the way. A drop in 1600 driveline can be had for sub $500 but a U20 and 5speed will be much much more.
