To Restore or Not to Restore

If you are planning to keep the car, your finances are going to be the issue with how "perfect" you make it. If you can do the majority of the work yourself then you can really save some money- especially with bodywork and paint. If you are limited, do what you can do to bring the car back to what is acceptable to you without cutting or destroying what can't be reversed. My car is worth more to me as an affordable clean driver than something that becomes nerveracking to bring out in public. It is your car. Enjoy it no matter the path you take.
