I sold the 69 nomad and 74 Vega and bought a near cherry 90 Silverado. Then I sold the 73 charger just so I would stop spending money on it.

It's easier to make money doing small projects on OTHER peoples' cars.
You know, I had some joker tell me the charger's high value was 5K, even knowing there was 10K in just the engine. That's akin to saying a set of glasses at a yardsale is only worth $1, when each glass has a C note in it. Nope, better to just work on other peoples' stuff, and let THEM deal with the market value..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.
