Default Re: Basket case, what do I look for? New to the hobby.

If you have not been around model A's. If you have not worked on them or helped others work on them, I would not suggest a "basket case". What you describe though is not a basket case in my opinion as only the body needs work.

Keep in mind that the work needed restoration, sheet metal work, welding, ect is not the same as building a kit. I'm not saying one is easier then the other, it's just a different skill set.
