Beautiful restoration, But this is what happens when you get carried away with your “Boyhood Fantasy” hobby project, you loose a ton of money and put the money you lost into the buyers pocket.
Post Script to this bit of advise; 23 grand, I don’t even have that much money invested in three Jeeps, am I missing something here in life? “I am just a poor boy, but my story is seldom told.”
