Welcome & thanks for your service!
9k should get you a real - and hopefully running - bird... However for that price it will probably have an issue or two. Sounds like you want something to tinker with and make your own. If that's the case, you may get in cheaper than 9k - it all depends on how much work you want to put into it. As you mentioned. you may do better with a Satellite or Belvedere and go the clone route, as that might free up some $$ for mods/upgrades/repairs...Either way, just know that once you start, its easy to get sucked in. I can't tell you how many times a project begins. and what started as a simple engine rebuild turns into a complete restoration. Pick the right car, set the goal that best suits you, and you're in.
BTW: Trust me, once you put a b-body sideways and feel the "lift & float" you will forget all about "tuners"
