If your doing a "resto" go with the original motor.

If you buy all of your parts seperately, you will struggle to meet your budget. Instead of buying just a shell, buy a project car. Interior, trim, and stock suspension will nickle and dime you to death if you have to reassemble it by buying piece by piece.
