Given the option do you think it's better to buy a car that's already been restored or buy one that needs restoring & build it EXACTLY how you want it? I know that a lot of people don't have the time or knowledge to restore things them selves, so for the sake of arguement you've also got enough money to have someone build it for you to your own spec. So, what do you do, buy or restore?? :lol: Cheers.....Nige

hey, if someone else can do it for me, restore! 8-)

But in my real world, its always a "rolling resto" for me, I need something that pretty much works, that needs "TLC"...

I can't afford to buy a restored car, and dont have time, space or knowledge to do one myself, maybe one day though.....when my kids make me rich enough to have a barn full of cars! :lol: :lol:
