Well....I did it, I bought the 68...today :pepper:
Sorry bout that Jiffy  :smile01:
First owner had it for 12 months, second owner 40 years, then to Oz to the guy I bought it off who had it 10 yrs.
Never restored so I'm a bit torn as to how to go with it, but current thinking is keep the entire interior trim as is, lots of very very cool "patina" there, have a high quality panel/paint job, all mechanicals rebuilt and detail underneath the car.
At least I know what I'm doing with my spare time for the next couple of years.
Very very happy right now....   

67FBGT:
Congratulations!  :bow:
Gotta keep the towbar, part of the car's history.  :grin:

Well done, if you haven't already - pop over to http://www.saacforum.com/, lots of good info there. I am betting the consensus would be to keep it as a survivor if you have original paint etc

cheers

If your gonna do a resto, let survivor car magazine do an article while its still original.

Thanks for the feedback. The interior is in great survivor shape, same goes for the body.The paint is rough, down to the primer and even bare metal in a couple of patches (has been covered in clear).I noticed a patch of lighter green on the car yesterday and after a little research last night I'm not so sure it's original paint,if so that will make the respray decision a little easier.
