Like Scott said, this will NOT be a "restoration" it's going to be more of go through the engine, transmission, brakes/suspension ect, make everything thing safe, and fresh. Put it back to its somewhat "day 2" status. This car cannot be duplicated by any amount of money, and I cannot wait to be part of it!
I guess this thought of a year ago certainly changed. Sad to hear, but if you weren't paid appropriately the car should still be in your shop. Sounds like another 3 sided story...
