Depends what type of project car you mean, whether modern car to pimp or an oldie classic, I would definetly recommend it if its an oldie and you have the time and money, Its quite a steep learning curve compared to modern day cars, I'm looking at my caddy and thinking the only thing I reckonise is the coil ignition system. A year and half on now since I started the jowett, and its all just about mechanically sound, its just the paint to finish now and the interior once I get it on the road which hopefully will be soon.
