here is the situation, my father just gave me his 1982 Pontiac Firebird. But it needs to be heavily restored. he wrecked it pretty bad about 5 years ago. he slid off a riven, about 12 feet high, and hit some trees and snapped them off. the passenger side is smashed in by about a foot and a half. It also has some water damage. it has been stored outside under a tarp, and has not been started since that unfortunate day.
I am not that much of a car guy, but this car has a lot of sentimental value. so my question is about how much money could i be looking at to restore it, and about how long till its done. and where should i start, what should i do??? I loved this car, any Intel to get this beast back up to her prime, would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!
