WIW 62 Lancer

There were no door panel emblems on '62 Gt's. The door panels in the pics are the originals. Only 770 models had the "lancer" embossed on the door panels like hyperpak posted. If you do your own labor and need something to keep you busy it's a great project. The cost to have this car restored is far more than it's resale value if your paying to have it done. If he gave it to you for free you'd have trouble selling it for a profit. If rarity set the price it would be worth a fortune. But since demand sets the price it can be a tough sell. Harsh words from someone with an obsession for these early "A"s and wishes every one could be saved. You could limit your financial losses by parting it out but you've got to store it, disassemble it, argue with the neighbors about it, and then haul the carcass away.

@barbee6043 you're not a pessimist, you're a realist. Sadly based on asking prices for field cars like this far to many people have been watching far to much Barret Jackson and Mecum on TV.
