What have I done?!

[AlexLohmann1]

Temptation is a terrible thing, how much?

Fairly firm on 25k. Has rebuilt electronics in dash with am FM mp3, and tons of stuff fixed under hood after initial owner blew the electronics with failed 12v conversion. Also has AC unit inside which is nice on those hot summer days/nights. If you want more info, feel free to ask.

Here's a Crestliner wheel. Limeworks sells them.

Before you commit to restoring your Crestliner you might want to compare what you can "buy one done" for as opposed to what your restoration will cost. Plus, the time. The price of 50's cars is dropping each year as the market fades away. Parts are drying up and restoration costs are soaring. You will end up spending more money on restoration than what a #1 51 Ford convertible or Crestliner would have cost. For example:

Very seriously reconsider what you are contemplating.

So buy a car already done and go back to watching the talking heads on TV argue?! Where's the fun in that? Where's the personal satisfaction of being able to say "I did that!"?
