@maple1255 The restoration was done in the 1980s and when completed at the end of 1988 my total cost cost was $21,996.71, including the $2000 I paid for the car. I would consider some of that as maintenance, such as brakes, tune-up, hoses, etc. I bought the car in 1983 and to date have spent a total of #32,155.75 (give or take a few pennies). That includes about 10 batteries, 3 sets of tires, two exhaust systems and many other upgrades I felt I needed or just wanted.
Incredible transformation, Frank. Just curious if you want to share, how much did the restoration cost all together?
