Hmmmm ... > > Don Garies > dgaries808@aol.com Don, I totally agree in principle with what you are saying about restoration costs getting out of hand. The other big danger is that part way through restoration you realise the horrible truth that costs are skyrocketing and so you cut corners, take cheaper options and end up with a vehicle that is not the superb restoration that you dreamed of creating. However, one way around this problem is to take a long time over restoration not cutting corners and not taking cheaper options so that over that long period of several years you do not notice the horrendous cost of restoration. And, never be tempted to sit down with the calculator and add up all the bills or, if you do, never let your spouse or partner see the figures!! And, of course, never kid yourself that you could get your money back on your investment!
