“Premium Series ”
State of the art Restoration
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that , you will have enough to pay for something better.
John Ruskin (1819-1900)
THE CAR
The original car to start the project with is always a rust free and straight car, as complete as possible to guaranty the originality of some important parts, such as the interior wood panels or the bumpers which could be a lower quality when remanufactured. Cars are sourced in California or other favorable dry climates (lack of salt used on roads during winter)..
