you could build one part at a time from the vendors and come out way cheaper.

It turns out that she has a '63 split window coupe that she parked and hasn't driven.

So what should I offer? Should I offer to marry her or to buy the '63???

Decisions, decisions!

If you marry her, you may end up giving her a house eventually - you should buy the car.

careful! could be a trap...bait you in with a 63, take you to a shed out in the woods to see the car because her cell phone camera is broken and......well, let your imagine take over from here.

"Take her, leave me the car" might be a possibility.

If I do that, will it be "original"?

Before you marry her, you need to take it for a spin. How's it ride? Check out whats under the hood. Is it clean? Any work done? How's the body held up over the years? Any sagging in the rear end? Maybe contact an expert for more opinions. We need pictures.
