Thanks, first time I've seen that after looking for a long time.

I understand Rocket. I was being facetious, as in restorations always cost more than planned.

Understand "Completely"!!, as I have restored a number of cars. I also understand through the BITTER lesson/s of buying an incomplete car & trying to "Piece it together",as seemingly everybody wants an arm/leg & first born child for part/s.

Thus if I could offer anyone looking at a relatively rare car, 2 bits of advice they would be..."1" Find the most Rust Free, Unhit, Original sheet metal, body/frame.

"2"...COMPLETE CAR!!!...as chasing down/finding, then paying for missing parts adds exponentially to the restoration cost/s.

Thus the reason/s that original/survivor cars garner a premium...Mark
