depends on what it is, and what you plan on doing!

that could be a GT for all i know - if you wanted to do a ground-up rebuild, that'd be a perfect starting point

Not really, as others said better off with a whole car even if it is a POS as it will have all the little bits that are so hard to get even if they have to be refreshed. the body shells are the same, gt or not I know I have both in xw, xy, xa, xb, and xc if there are any question about x series you only have to ask, being retired I have plenty of time to answer or research. :D

302,351 are that damn cheap and easy to build. The only thing u need is a good shell and chassis to start with. Id prefer one thats got nothing to it, less to strip to paint

see if you can find a wrecked one of something,
wouldnt that be alot easier then getting (like gtbob said) the little bits that cant be found, or a very hard to find

patience is the key to sucess (where the f**k is that from just came to my head)
