Default 67' Camaro SAVE or SELL!!

Well I have been thinking about this for quit some time and would like some imput on it. Its a 67' camaro perfect condition, uncut untouched except by GM the perfect starting point for a Pro-Touring car,yet it will most likely be 4-5 years down the road before I can aford the transformation. So I'm on the fence wheather or not to just sell it know and just save(invest) the money until I can aford this style of car. Then at that point I could just buy a complete turn key car or get a project and start the build.What do you guys think? thanks,Travis

Save. What kinda question is that? If you've got the room store it until you will be able to do something with it. You'll appreciate it more if you can see it going through it's transformation.

sounds to me like youve got a car that you wont find the likes of again, especially in 5 years from now.. and if you want to invest, well you allready have, the 1.gen is a sure thing right now so your money isnt going anywhere...

my recomendation would be to keep it... as an invensment.. and if yoy really want a PT camaro down the road, to do it right the first time... so start taking it appart, but put everything on shelves so you know where to find it, and if you have mechanicall skills well then you can start out doing the cheap... but labour intensive stuff now.. media-blast it, put it on a rotisserie (build one your self).. or simply store it, and drive it on sundays..

Save it, you will spend more money later trying to find what you already have. Mine has been apart for 15 years, moved to different house twice, just be patient and it will come together.

Thanks for the responsies, I guess I just get tired of storing a car that I bought to build and still am not able to do what I want yet. This is fault of all of you becuase of all the awesome rides being built here . Well I have to lay blame some where. I'm still thinking about it, but less since GHOSTDANCER has such a BIIGG CHECKBOOK . Travis
