15K makes for a pretty good payday
Yeah, will make around $3-5k on it if I do it up nicely. And if I restomod (make it like a modern car as far as tech) it is about $20-25k but that also requires a further $3-5k investment into it so… Mehhhhh
The one thing I do really want to do is make a digital dashboard for it out of a raspberry pi or something like it, but that requires a ton of work because it being a 1965 it doesn’t have any digital anything so have to convert mechanical signals or add new pickups for the speed and whatnot but will see.

The only reason I don’t have it here now is because it was the end of October when I left home and we’ll no heater, being carbureted and no windshield wipers meant that it would have been some seriously dangerous shit to go through the mountains on I80 lol. So my grandpa loaned me his 04 Civic to use for the drive to CA, which is a nice car that everything works on and is EFI so doesn’t have issues with elevation.
That and my grandpa knows more about vintage cars than me so some of the stuff he’s way better at. Like the heater, he’s mostly fixed now but if I had tried to fix it having never done it before I may have broken it so.
But now I have the Volvo to play with and learn more on so.

I think the next games on the emulation list are ncaa and madden 07 (feel like doing some franchise modes, one QB another probably something like LB or CB) because those appear to be the best available for ps2. I just hope they emulate properly like Jak and Daxter and not like Jak 2…
