That car looks pretty good, I'm not sure I would "restore" it, just detail the heck out of it.

Congratulations!!!

I have gotten a lot of flak today from several people due to the fact that I am restoring the car. Trust me when I say this car could not be saved as a survivor. While the body is mostly in very good solid condition the interior was toast and the engine was completely disassembled. If I were to put it back together and make it a driver it would not be a true survivor by definition so that is why it is being restored. It is just not in good enough condition as is to save as a survivor. If I thought it could be I certainly would.

I would not tell Steve Wynn how to run a Hotel business and I certainly don't think anyone should be telling you how to restore a Rick Nelson Chevelle!
