Whats it worth?? 63

No offense, but after multiple posts (12, 13, 15, 16, 29) saying to not touch it, leave it original, and this is all good advice, you ended up doing quite a bit to it. In your mind, you were "improving", but to many, myself included, that not-quite-perfect original was better. It's still a nice car, don't get me wrong, but putting money/time into a car doesn't always increase the final price it will sell for. Either way, since this turned out to not be a low-miles car, it doesn't matter quite as much as it would have if it had been a low-miles car. I'd have still rather had it untouched as much as possible though.

But, that said, do you have before pics of underhood/trunk (to go with the after pics you've already posted)?

CORRECT, AND I WAS GOING TO JUST GET IT RUNNING AND SELL IT, BUT ONCE I FOUND THE MILEAGE WAS 109 K I WANTED TO REPAINT AND CLEAN IT UP A BIT. THE CAR DID NOT RUN BUT DID NOT NEED A LOT A BIT OF WORK TO GET IT DRIVING / IDLING SMOOTH...THE REST OF THE CAR IS REALLY STRAIGHT AND IN GOOD CONDITION. MOST 63'S I SEE OUT THERE THAT HAVE NOT BEEN REDONE IN SOME FASHION ARE FARM FIELD COLLECTORS, RAT HOMES, OR A SCIENCE PROJECT FOR RUST... I THINK I HAVE $600 IN THE ENGINE BAY THAT'S IT, ELBOW GREASE IS FREE FOR ME BUILDS KNOWLEDGE, CHARACTER AND CALORIES:happy2:... I WILL LOOK FOR SOME PICS OF WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE BEFORE. ENGINE BAY.

THE WAY I SEE THIS CAR IS KINDA A LEARNING EXP. AND IM OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS, I'M OK WITH CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. I DON'T NEED THE MONEY TO SURVIVE, MORE A HOBBY / SIDE JOB DEAL.. I'VE STARTED REPAINTING CARS, AND I'M RESTORING A 79 CORVETTE NOW AS WE SPEAK SO IM GETTING MORE BRAVE... GOTTA START SOMEWHERE...
