Ok, good point.
But there are two issues that I can see.
#1 Does the owner WANT us to do this for him? Is he willing to accept us to build the car back to more of a "stock" condition than the "balls out" condition that he wanted to build originally?
#2 How much more will the car be worth after we are done? If I remember, David down in Georgia had some hard times selling Goldie which was supposed to be in very good condition when he sold it. I tried to look up the for sale ads, but they were done on craigslist and are no longer available.
