Joules and David,
I like the way you're thinking. Just get it running and then you can fix stuff and the money is available.
Only issue with that plan (are there any mods/improvements I need to make while the car is a shell and not put together?)
BTW I have a Fluidyne radiator to replace the stock unit.
