You could clean up & paint the windshield frame, put new safety glass in it, weld up the cracks in the fenders, rub the whole body down with oil, get it running & have fun with it. You will not believe how people love an unrestored survivor. You can sink a fortune into it later & guard it from finger prints thereafter if you like. It is really beautiful as it is. It has been said before - "They are only original once!"

A trip through the corn field in my green T with the neighbour's kids on board is a lot more enjoyable than sitting at a show worrying about dust on the shiny one. Honest - I have both! ( I do wish the previous owner had not been at the JD dealer the day they were giving out paint samples. Luckily he did have a new brush!)
