Thanks for the feedback everyone. The color, appearance package, and the fact it is near me are what attracted me. Unfortunately, I don't have the time nor the skill to work on this myself. Am I looking at $20k to make this a #2 car?

Am I looking at $20k to make this a #2 car? Here are the condition ratings generally used... Classic Car Condition Ratings If you can't or don't do the work yourself, it can easily cost $20k in parts and labor to get to a 4. To get to a #2 using pros you should count on $50k or more. If you can do most or all of the labor yourself (including body work and paint) maybe half those numbers with some luck. The car you are looking at I would grade somewhere between a 5 and 6. (My opinion...others may vary) |
