Several years ago I was moaning to a couple of good friends about how much money I was putting into a project, beyond what I'd get back if I sold it.
They gave me words of wisdomw. They said: "Charlie it's a hobby not a business. You're doing it to have fun". |

Saving something so that one or many may enjoy it in the future is never a bad thing. Even cars that are modified have their appreciation on different levels.
Cars are a collection of stories - never lose sight of the fact that although we may own them, we are only custodians of them for a given period of time. How we treat them during that time reflects more on us than it does them, and becomes part of their story.

I am at the stage of i wish i never bought this. Parts are tough to find, and i tore the labrum in my hip during mid restoration so not much happening. One guy makes all the interior parts and he's had health issues, so at least I ordered all of that at once and have it ready to go in.
The interesting thing with this car it was delivered to the factory so it has some odd history but we will never know. A guy told me that used to work there said the cars went into a pool when they could use them whenever they want. But he said this car was too nice for that to be its case. It was at the end of the model year so that rules it out as a magazine test car. It is a rare car but that also makes it hard to find parts. They built around 320 and there's 130 in the registry. 32 of them are black, and this car has a white convertible top which is really unusual. It might end up being one of 10 left. So I just wish someone had done it beside me it's not like working on a Camaro. 1961 Chrysler 300G
