For $950, they're both a steal. The white one will need a bit more TLC because of the driveline, but is also more tuned. The green one is in better mechanical shape, just needs some brightening and a good set of Panasport, RS Watanabe, Libra, or Minilite wheels plus the windshield to be a real barnstormer.
Insurance would not be as much as you'd think. It'd be more than your Volvo, naturally, but if you go with someone like Grundy Collectors Insurance you'll pay something on the order of $250 a year for full coverage and unlimited mileage. As for modifications for more speed, find a set of three Mikuni 40mm/Solex 40mm/Weber DCOE 40mm side-draft carbs to wake the L24 up. That's a possible 350hp streetable engine with gobs of torque and a ton of fun to be had. BUY IT!!!

Personally I'd rather have a '72 SAAb 96 - but I'm just wacky that way. Buying somebody else's project is usually not a bad idea - most of the time they have already done all the hard work, you just have to take off the rough edges. Just make sure to take your time and check them out carefully if you do end up buying them.

No, if I was going with a Sonnet, I'd rather have the unleashed raw power that a triple-carbed 2-stroke slant inline three can provide!
2-stroke power! Anyway, the Zs look like a pretty fair deal - I'd probably take them.

Personally, I'd take the green one - I like green. But you should check out BOTH before making your final decision.
