    Pretty sure Jaunty posted a pic of this in Michigan at a repair shop some time ago. Regrettably it didn't have a surfboard on it then. Can't find the post now.

    Unfortunately for these sellers, you need to find the person that loves your taste. That’s a tall order for tinkle yellow, and decals.

    yes, agree. every time i watch a mecum auction and a custom that 100k was spent on sells for 40k, i always think the best buy is finding one you like that someone else upgraded

    Or best yet, a barn find that nobody had a chance to disfigure. That way, you get a clean sheet

    early on. I bought a 1962 Imperial LeBaron from a friend of mine and basically paid him $500 more than he had in the paint job. I love finding low milage stock, or a car that I know has been put back correctly.
