Patina Paint Job
People spending mucho time to make
Look like you disregarded it in the first place...wow.
A car was saved that was going to the scrap yard.
It was mechanically restored and upgraded for performance and safety.
It was worked on as a learning tool for US auto students, 100% funded by the teacher - me. The money in it, exceeds it's value WITHOUT doing body and paint. I'm underwater, but that's ok....its about teaching the kids. My concern and curriculum is MECHANICALS, not auto body (obvoiously)
The HS program does NOT do body and paint....so it would be a complete losing proposition to send it to a body shop.
To get it to a point you would Approve, would be in excess of 20 grand. Yes, I'd have an easier time selling it for 10k, taking a 10k hit.
By not painting, the kids hammerec, welded, bondo-d, spray bombed it .
For those reasons, it way way cooler than a shiny show car that looks exactly like the line of 150 other shiny show cars
