Default Re: Restoration: Would you do it again?

Yes, I would, and am in fact doing another one. I enjoy doing the work myself. It is kind of neat to not only say you own the car, but that you restored the car your self. And, when finished, good or bad, you know what you have. By doing it your self, you alone determine how well it is done, and how correct. But, it is hard work, and not usually the least expensive way to go. Another alternative is hiring someone to do that special car for you. That way, once again, you have control over the finished product. Buying a completed car is the easiest, and sometimes the cheapest, but not always the best way to go. To me, buying a completed car is perhaps the hardest way to obtain that special car, simply because it is so hard to determine a completed cars "real identity".
