Very Impressive....

Every day this hobby reminds me more and more of the "Hot Rodding" and "Classic Car" communities. You have your guys/gals who search for that car they have wanted since they were a kid. When they find it, they take a specific course of action depending on the person, the car, the available resources and the intended end results.

You have the "I want to drive it" folks who live to tinker on it and keep it drivable. They tend to steer away form certain levels of restoration because it would mean they would have to stop driving the car for a while. For them it doesn't need to be perfect and they are OK with that.

On the other end of that spectrum you have the folks who do the "show class" "High End" "Better than Original" restorations. That's where this restoration is and it's beautiful. I mean - just look at that power board. it's magnificent, better that original, it's a work of art. I think that's amazing, great job!

Personally, it's very encouraging for me to be able to hop on this forum (and others) and see all the varying levels of restoration and customization. It's great that this hobby is still growing and gaining momentum every day. Just my two cents worth....

Thanks for posting this restoration and again, great job!
