Mine is down in VA at Scotty B's getting restored and converted to a 6. All the ones I've seen for sale have rust issues. They all look good in the pictures but the "minor surface rust" turns out to be hell hole, longs, floor pans, ect. $5-10K repairs. Ask me how I know... Unless your really lucky, buying someones restored car is the way to go. You can pick up a nice car for half what it costs to do yourself. Just make sure it was really "rustored", not bondo or fiberglassed over rust.

There's a air cooled car show in central NJ. Someone might have something nice for sale there.
