Congrats on the sleuthing. You might actually have a "1 of 1" on your hands. I will follow this thread to see what others think of value & restoration. From what I have seen around me at car shows, you would not be money ahead to have the car restored if you farm out the whole process. A quality paint job without body work runs in the thousands now. I couldn't even guess on the body work, it is difficult to find shops to even take on old cars any more - to many quick jobs for insurance to take on "projects". The engine & transmission is easy enough to have done, but finding someone to do the electrical and other mechanical could be a job. Bottom line, if you have the restore done - you had better have deep pockets and a lot of patience! The old project management triangle holds true for everything and is multiplied when it comes to old cars... Cal
