Have a chance to buy this 66, which was so called "restored" by a small town nobody with little experience. the owner took it to this shop, which had it for a number of years, to do a full body restoration. From what I see when I looked at it to purchase it, the body parts don't line up, like the hood and trunk,,, has tape over the birds%$t like welding on the interior that is still in primer, and not painted,,, has 2 tone green/grey paint on the trunk area, lots of bolts and other small parts that are not any kind of factory or original,, in other words, from talking with another body shop, the repairs would be over 5 grand just to put it halfway back in shape to what it should have been at the last shop.
I think the resto shop did more damage than when it was rusty originally taken there. So the question is.......
Basic shell of a car.. to buy, or not to buy?? Should this pony be saved or not ?? Any feedback is appreciated..

I mainly was wondering if my wife and kids would be bored if this would be more of a mans night out? I was invited but will not know anyone there so it may be a short night. ]]> Classic Talk Shakin66 http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/800890-my-first-cruise.html
