'69 C3-Estimated costs and problem areas to reanimate long-dormant car

Thanks William. Lifelong Seattle car, frame rust is a non-issue (I looked). BTW, I grew up in Minneapolis, so I truly understand rust

Nice looking car. I really like the blue on blue.
If it was stored in a protected environment, the hoses may not be deteriorated badly. How do the hoses look that you can see in the engine compartment ?



Brake calipers are a concern, as they may well be stuck, or will, after a few applications.
Hopefully, there is a high enough anti-freeze concentration to ward off major rusting in the block.

I would check out prices for the parts that it may need and, of course, all the fluids and flushing chemicals necessary.

WAG ?? No idea but tires and a battery are going to run 1-2k. Friggen batteries are $2-300 now..
