Often times, at least the gazillions of mid-year Vettes that I've seen, looked like mosh pits underneath. Twisted metal, bad fiberglass repairs, etc.
Restoring the gauge cluster, IRS, rear wheel t-arms, interior, K-H brakes, PS, PW, PB, TI, gas tank, and all the little itty bitty parts all over the car. To me, it's seems like a nightmare now, that I did all that to my Vette over my long ownership.
Nope, I'd rather start with a nice pristine clean brand new whatever-mobile.
Just about every classic car is down in price with the possible exception of the early 911's. I would love to have a nice clean 1973 911 Targa T, E or S. Of course, having a modern 3.6 L installed it would make me every happy, since I'm not purist.
