Banshee, if that is the one we talked about here in Indiana I am jealous that it was so close to home and I didn't find it first. Nice purchase. As for my car I paid $8000 purchase price then spent another $20K on a complete resto. Maybe a bit much for a 69' 350 auto convertible but I did a ground up and did it right. In the past I (mainly do to youth and lack of fundage) had cut corners on some other cars. I decided that regardless of cost I wanted it done right. I personally know about every nut and bolt on the car. It started as a solid NOM car with great documentation and well optioned also. Now after 3 years I am ready to drop the top and enjoy.
