Re: Looking for tips for a first time restoration
Avoid a car with rusted floors or frame, careful of bondo covering lower body panel repairs, pick a car that has appeal and value when done, the resto costs the same for a plain Maibu vs an SS. Get professional help picking a car and checking it out.

Re: Looking for tips for a first time restoration
