sounds like you’ve made your decision that works for you. The communication effort ahead of time is great. And location is helpful to monitor things.

I’m going by results. If you read what I write, I acknowledged the painted underside could be owner preference. But the other stuff is just error. Plating something white cad instead of black phosphate. There no cost difference in that. That AAR was not a resto mod. It’s was being offered for around $130K by a second owner.

Roller dyno sounds cool. MCR has a great website and promotion.

I’m suggesting shops to the original poster for best value. Money spent to get the most results.

Value is exactly what I am getting at, my 69 swinger/GTS is a roller, original drivetrain is gone, no vin, dashboard is gone, no fender tag, no broadcast sheet. On top of that it has a Illinois salvage title making it worth less money. I don’t know exactly what it is other than a swinger/GTS. It is fairly solid after a dubious restoration and then a front end collision. It was then stuff into storage and I would guess started being parted out.

So considering all this, how much money would you put into a restoration of this car. In the end I don’t care about it’s inherent end value as I will never sell it. I just won’t put stupid money into it. I’m hoping y’all understand where I am coming from and yes MCR is closer to me than other restoration shops that I feel have the means to accomplish the level of restoration I am looking for. I thoroughly toured their shop and inspected their current work,past work and the procedure of restoring.
