Re: just a rant
The facts are restoring our V8's, or any car for that matter, is becoming very expensive. Services like chrome plating are becoming hard to find. Interior upholstery shops are harder to find. When you find one, they are backed up for 6 months or longer. Our cars aren't worth a fraction of what a well done total restoration cost, unless you have a rare model.
The recent poll I conducted here on the barn will show that most folks will focus on maintaining the operating condition of their V8 as opposed to restoration.
