hey Rusty Rat... thanks for the kind words. the complete interior in this car is "driver's quality" which means i "might" just put it in the M car. i will definitely use the headrest buckets though as they are still in decent shape. i do have a set of these seats but the coverings are completely gone and the frames are rusty. i was happy to have found those ones when i did. it will be great to just unbolt these new seats and bolt them back in as is. THAT'S the "easy" way to do these cars.. LOL! the other thing about this new car is that it has a bunch of parts that i have no use for or interest in which will greatly reduce the investment when i sell those parts. i love these cars, however, i DO NOT just "throw money at stuff." whatever i buy - the price and part value has to make sense to me. and as to the overall investment in all my cars, i have structured each deal to represent an investment where i could recoup 80-90% of the money in each car and as to my finished 68 and my 69 383 car, i could actually make money on these cars if i were to sell them. i would never tell a guy that he should just think about the "economics" of this hobby because these cars mean so much more to people than just a "bottom line" profit/loss analysis. but i have also seen guys who are losing HUGE amounts of money on their cars because they apparently spent too much going in; spent a lot fixing the car; and then unfortunately found out just how far "upside down" they were when they sold the car. i want to enjoy these cars - but i'm also NOT intentionally trying to lose large amounts of money either.
