Here is the "before" shot.
At first glance you kinda say "eww".
But lets look in deeper...


Wow...now we are talking.
The original inside was all intact...it just suffered from a poor respray on the exterior.
This was all original with roughly 90k miles prior to the restoration.


In the hands of a skilled owner it took shape again and was returned to it's former glory.

Really a very pretty car!








Fender wells are nicely detailed.
Paint finish under here has a texture to it for durability.





Here is a "before" of the engine compartment.
The car has come a long way since these pix were taken!!


Despite the odd paint job and scruffy shape...it really was a good honest car underneath it all
and that is what is so important with a restoration basis..."good bones!"


It was  all original paint inside and under the hood...


Now today it is stunning!
Really a nice piece and it started out as a pretty original car which is nice.
I love the look of it and I commend the owner for not cutting corners and building a very nice machine in the end.
