I guess I haven't kept up with the cost of restoring a car.

Keith and Brent both related that a paint job is $20K today with preparation work done properly. I was thinking ten grand would catch it I see I'm behind the curve.

SO, my next step is to re-evaluate my Agreed Value insurance with Hagerty and I'd better bump that up. The latest issue of The Restorer had two articles about Model A's being totalled, one article dealt with the big California wild fires. The other was the big floods in Houston last year.

I'm glad to have learned something here I really hadn't thought much about lately..........
