My dad isn't into cars so that makes it harder for me to get started, but Ireally want to do this. What should I do and how should i get started? I don't have a garage or tools, but i know people. If anyone can give me an estimate on the cost of parts, or tips on how to make the project cheaper I would appreciate it, since I am the sole funder and machanic.
Well... do you have your T/A yet?

You need to plan out what you want to do to it, and how you're going to get there... do you want to drive it while you're working on it, or are you going to park it until it's completed?

It all really depends on what you have, and where you want to go.

And pay mechanics as little as possible... they'll rape you.
