Hi Ben,
Welcome to CHR. I built my '33 coupe from a roller package, and I'm in the middle of another one that I picked up after it sat for five years with very little done other than the guy buying 90% of the parts before losing interest. The guys are giving you the right advice on buying a complete car or a project that needs only a bit of finishing to be done. Unless you have all of the tools, including things like 1/2" drill & bits, MIG welder capable of welding 1/4" plate minimum, torque wrenches, angle grinder(s), good air compressor, full set of sockets & wrenches, bench grinder, chisels, punches, dial caliper, engine hoist, engine stand, floor jack, jack stands, etc, etc, etc then you'll be buying them sooner vs later. Buy a complete car that fits your needs, then like Mike says, spend some time making changes that make it "yours". You'll be a lot of money ahead, and you'll be enjoying the car a whole lot quicker.
