the only problem with these old muscle cars is that they're so damned expensive

Johnny,

How about a rat rod? You seem to like throwing together cool ---- that wasn't originally meant to be together, and it normally comes out pretty interesting. Might be an opportunity to let your creative side out, and shouldn't be incredibly expensive. I'll bet there's a lot of cool ideas sitting out there in some farmers field, you could get for cheap.
