Anthony thanks for the reply.
I really don't want to go through a build. The main reason is I know these cars typically require a bunch of little corrections to get just right. I want to take advantage of what is a pretty good used market to get one that's been ironed out. The other is price. I want reasonable resale value should I decide I want to move on and I don't want to take all the depreciation myself. A coyote would be something I'd be interested in but I don't think I'll find one preowned at this point in time. It may also be unnecessarily anal when looking for reliability. I do want the thing to stink and snort a little bit at least.
My budget is based on seeing what asking prices are over time. This says nothing of what actual selling prices are. Once I narrow down the requirements, I can start focusing on closing prices.
