1968 Ford Mustang — cheap project has enough margin to fix and resell?

BatteryLearner102Community StarterMar 26, 20261968 Ford Mustang FastbackCharlotte
1968 Ford Mustang Fastback, about 163,000 miles. I found a running car with cosmetic damage and deferred maintenance at a low price. Before treating it as a flip, how do you budget hidden repairs, title/registration, taxes, transport and selling time? I am in Charlotte. I am trying not to assume the first explanation I see online.

Don't overfit one forum story to your car. If it still isn't clear on the 1968 Ford Mustang, a specialist hour can be cheaper than another round of parts. I'd do that before spending real money. This is from a 1968 Ford Mustang in Charlotte with 163,000 miles. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. If the story changes I'll post the new data.
