Some of us repair, refurbish, and scavenge parts, lessening the cost and increasing the originality as opposed to reproduction. An investment of time and sweat is worth more than money any day, IMO.
I know I paid over what both my 'birds were worth. My convertible was $17,000 and the coupe was $7000. I should have done research when buying the drop top. I possibly could have saved a couple grand. The coupe I felt was worth $6K for a fairly original car, given its road worthiness and interior color change. The car did come with V-8 the PO was going to put in the car. And I though I could get some money out of it. But that hasn't happened. But both cars are worth my time and money, when those elements are available.

It's also nice to have a 'bird you can get out on these cold sunny days and go for a drive as you, John and I did yesterday. So what my cammer got a little dirty. The thumbs up, and the folks that ask about the car give a good deal of satisfaction as well.
Looks like you'll have to get some biz cards made up if folks come out in the cold to kick tires with ya Vikki.
