Yup, that "free car" could easily end up costing $80-100K with the owner doing as much as possible.

Why does everyone bring up how much it will cost to restore a car? It is a hobby, hobbies cost money! Golfing cost money, fishing cost money, boating cost money, hunting cost money, etc... If you enjoy restoring cars, money should not be the first thing you think of.
I am really tired of "oh, you will be upside down in this restoration before you start" who the Heck cares if you enjoy it!
