in most cases I would completely agree- but I prefer the end result here.

well done!
I agree. I often think cars are good enough as found and should be left alone, but in this case I think it deserved to be restored and is so much nicer now. As found it had the wrong wheels and front bumper, just for starters.

Well, in order to restore world peace in our home I had to restore it as my wife literally hated it when I dragged it home. Last week I was working in the shop and I was stunned when she said, "I'm starting to like it". Mission accomplished.

Not too happy here.



It took a lot to get her to help.
