Awesome car.

Seriously - put a chassis under it, put the motor in it, make the interior serviceable and drive that body as is ! Patina will always be hot because it can't be bought only earned !

I've heard this before! I cant do it. As much as I see cars all done up with the patina and look great I just cant bring myself to do it.

I agree with Preston this car has perfect Patina. After building my dads 57 and the Syborg truck I new when we were doing the 70 not to spend any money on paint and body as I would never enjoy the car. I love the fact that kids can walk up to the 70 at a local cruise night and i don't have to freak out. The best part is I can lean on the car and not worry ( at all ) so no more flashy paint jobs that cost a fortune and are a nightmare to blend in.

Detail the engine bay, chassis and interior only.

Look at Boris Maryanovsky who owns Street Machinery Sales and Service in Cleveland on Facebook. All his cars are driven and enjoyed by there owners.
