I agree. I work at a Kwik Kar now so I have access to a lift and a bunch of other stuff, plus I've also been building my tool collection for some time now and have way more tools. It has a bad head gasket on cylinder one, the ring around the piston has a 1” chunk missing from the gasket. Got the push rods, rocker arms, head gasket kit all to find out both heads are cracked beyond repair. No biggie, it has a title and it's an easy fix. Hard to find a decent car nowadays for less than $5k so either way it's a win. Probably going to do a build thread for it to eventually.
