I think this is going to be a kick yourself in the pants if you pass it up moment. I had the chance of having a 77' vette and have regretted it every day. I have to push you on this haha, but if there isn't space and you don't have the funding prepare for regrets but you also may have the chance in the future if it isn't going anywhere.
OR if your friend doesn't mind you can purchase it and ask to leave it on his property until you get your funds and space setup throw a tarp on her and kiss her once for good luck. Save, save and save some more because I want to see this turn into the 10 second cruiser bio called it
