i'm a sophomore ME right now, i just got a project last summer, an 82 S10. if you need a car at school, then buy a car for that purpose. build your car right the first time though. my dad would have bought me a daily driver for college, but i chose a project instead. it wont even roll for at least a year, and i dont have a car at school. it sucks.

go for the daily driver. less headache, no deadline, and no "i told you so" when your chevelle isnt reliable.

Wow, this thread got dug up.

Anyways, I have choosen to go with a DD, as much as I would like to see the 'Velle get that much closer to completion, I guess it probably would end up not being finished in time.

20 years ago when I was in college working on my BSME, I parked the camaro and picked up a VW rabbit for $25! Put a fuel pump on it and sold it 3 years and 5000 miles later for $50! I didn't care if I threw greasy parts in the back or parked it near the snowplow route, I just drove it to get me through college. Always remember, one mans junk is another mans treasure!
