Ok I enlisted in the Air National Guard and I leave to train after graduation for 300 days (120 days at the end at home base).

When I get out i should have $6000, 300 days of full time pay, $4000 coming monthly, and roughly $500 a month in addition to that.

So I said what the hell, I'll build a raw car. Thats what brings me here.

1) A new car is too expensive
2) An old car is too unreliable
3) I need somthing that will last me roughly 10 years

So that leads me to placing a new engine in an old car. So now i need suggestions. I want to stay under $8000 for the most part, but all suggestions are welcome. Here are my ideas so far:

1. 350 ramjet crate in an old GM car
2. 360/380 magnum hemi in an old dodge car (prob charger) and convert to EFI

So everyone make there suggestion including engine and car. For the GM im debating, and would like something old like a GTO or chevelle, but i dont think i could get it as a daily driver for under 8. And the dodge would prob be a charger but unsure of restoration costs again. So what are your suggestions?

(make sure it's fuel injection for reliability's sake)
