Default project ideas

well my g/f and I are trying to decide on a good project for her vehicle, i think we have it pretty much decided on the general vehicles, but we have one we like above the rest, we would love to do a chopped lowrider '53 5 window with an ls-x/t-56, we are also considering the "norm" chevelle, camaro, ect, but, who can resist the infamous cool looks of the 53 hot rod truck? well we cant anyways, but we arent exactally sure its a project we can take on just yet, because im having a hard time finding body parts, if i were to pick up a rust free frame, then all that would be left would be the body parts, and ect. we have a body/chassis fabricator we know well, and he does AMAZING work, and we are looking at 1 1/2 to 2 years to be up and running, but it would never be done, no single custom on this earth is ever "finished" because you can always put more of yourself into it, and if you say you cant, your wrong! but anyways, do you think this could be a good project?

The classic trucks are always a good choice for a project vehicle, being full framed. It sounds like a good idea.
