    1,000+ hours on a restoration...yikes Uneconomical from a financial perspective, but i have to give him credit for following through on his passion. My guess is that most, if not all of us, have more money into our cars than what they are worth (unless you have a low production number & rare...

    Welcome...it looks like you have a car with great bones to restore... although 100+ degrees in the carport could be challenging....I guess with lots of liquids (beers) it should be no problem keep us in the loop
