lots of guys had opinions. "You'll be able to find a mint shell for $1500!" they said. It's not going to happen. A $1500 shell will be rough and rusty, and require lots more work and time than you'll probably want to put into it. Really clean shells are few and far between, and the owners want close to $3K for those. In the end, i spent a little more and ended up buying a clean running NA to do the swap, and saved on shipping (because it was drivable) and sold things like the motor out of it to recoup some cash. Good luck.
