To restore or not?

The last pictures. I hope you enjoyed the story!

Great story. What an ordeal! (GroBe Tatigkeit!)  I loved the pictures.  Kongratulieren!

Thank you for the kind words. Where did you learn German? during the army? Despicte my name, my mother tongue is...French. However, living in Switzerland, I can speak German too.

Bruce,
  I noticed that the car was left wet when they photographed it.  Was the car really that shiny or was it a wet-car-looks-great move?

Definitely a Wet-look car.

In real life, when I actually got to it, it was definitely dry, it still looked reasonable.

But, when stripping it, it was another story.   Bog EVERYWHERE, especially filling the hole where the Seat Belt Mount was.

One must remember that this vehicle was being driven in the condition it was, as it was involved in a crash, which is why it was in storeage for so long (Since 1990 at least)

And, worse still, someone did all the "Repairs" and put it back on the road.

But, not one useable part went to the crusher.

The Hood was bent badly, and the front Fenders were totally rusted out, and bent.

EVERYTHING else is in the Container with my '72 Eldo Convertible, and other stuff, which will arrive here on Sunday.
