A true restoration - you'll be very quickly upside down. Easy $100k +. I can't imagine a perfect club cabriolet fetching even half that.
A "high end" rod... again, you'll be way upside down.

Bottom line in my opinion? Have fun with this one. Attempt to keep your investment to a minimum.
A good rule of thumb as an example? Body and paint cost about the same if you're painting a '36 club cabriolet or a '39 convertible coupe.
Choose wisely....
When I had the opportunity to be the"first" to post on this....I "WAS" gonna post "IF you are in this for "Value" then you have picked the wrong venue for "Value" either way you go!!!! What is it YOU want?"
