Idea- pre '70 notch-back mustang road racer/auto crosser

[mike343sharpstk]

Here is the deal, I really want to do a road race/track day/auto cross car next... Long term plan. Thowing some ideas around in my head.

Problem is, I don't typically like common cars, but the reality of it that building a mopar or an AMC track day/road race car is just to damn expensive. Hell, it would be a full time job finding parts in the event of a wreck. The point of the sport is driving the car, not searching for parts.

There is a very good reason most guys use mustangs, vettes, or Camaros for this.

Lately I've had a thing for the old Terlingua mustangs...


I was looking at the SVRA rule book and checking eBay for good donor cars, what are your thoughts on the cost of building a 1968/70 notch-back Mustang chassis and a new boss 302 ford block as the basis for the power plant.
The SVRA rules seem to eliminate the ?trick? parts and seem to keep it pretty basic.

A good shell seems relatively available and inexpensive? A Cougar would be cooler, but more expensive.
With something like this I could do track days, svra events, auto-crosses, etc.
Could a guy do a car like this for 15 to 20 grand in parts??
