It doesn't cost a thing to think up an idea like this, so why not toy with the idea, gather as much info as you can and learn some of the many skills you'll need to make an idea like this come to life?
Now'* the time to start saving for whatever project you decide to undertake. I don't get the impression that you want to do this for under 10 grand over summer vacation. As long as you realize this is a looooonnnnngg term project and will require a lot of work and money than no one should sit there and tell you NOT to do it.
Money and hardwork can get you anything in this country, all you have to do is figure out how much of those two it'* going to take, and then find a car you can afford to have sitting for 5-10 years

Chris, I'll be honest with you now.
I'm not puttting you down or squashing your dreams okay? Now that you mentioned that you was going to make your car into a show car first before you start a RWD project, that just make me think the RWD project ain't going to happen. Honestly in my opinion, I think you're better off just doing a L67 S2 swap and bagging it. That'll still be challenging enough as there is no kit for Bonnevilles and I've never seen a L67 swapped and bagged 92-95 SLE especially in purple. Everyone is being honest with you, it might not happen (the RWD project), we're trying to help you out.
As Jack said, it'* fun to come up with ideas, I do that too, so does everyone else but some of them are so far out that it'* never feasible but it'* fun. I often find myself wondering if I could swap in a Northstar V8, but in reality, it'* probably near impossible to do so.
So, I ask you to think this very very very very throughoutly, take in consideration the hours, the money needed, patience, etc.
