A '28 Nash sedan, purchased for $50 in 1970 when I was just 16 and dismantled around 35 years ago (a bad decision in retrospect!). Bits of it have followed me around the country since then, while other bits have remained at my parent's house. I now (hopefully!) have all of the bits under one roof at my home, for the first time since around 1980. Restoration starting date = ???

My wife's 1970 Cougar XR-7 during the restoration and after. We stripped it in the drive way. And no it was not warped from the blasting.

I have a restored 1930 roadster pickup, 1937 Ford 4 door humpback sedan restored , and a 1930 chopped and channeled coupe that me and my father build in the 1970's sold it in 1988 and i bought it back in 2012. We did not chop it, it was an old drag car and parts when we got it. It was worth buying it just being able to take him for a ride again , he was 86 when i bought it back he will be 90 in April. Pics in my avitar

Interesting to see that most of us appreciate them all. Many have 60's and 50's cars to boot plus some even newer stuff!! Variation. The spice of life.
