Cost of restoration

[Taily]

Wonder what the costs r now?

Depends on exactly how much of the work you can do yourself!

I'm in to the tune of around $18K but I have done everything except the engine myself, plus I started with something that was already very tidy having been in my family since new (1 previous owner before me).

I still have to do wheels (blasted and new red walls) and the TH400 but am hoping it will hold together (so far it is working well with a 2500rpm stall) for a couple of months yet until I can cobble some more coin into the project. I have had my first drive in it in four years today, felt great to be back on the road!

Depends on how understanding the other half is as well.

I suppose I have some brownie points stored up as he let me drive it today! It's good to have the old girl back on the road again, he's done a good job with her.
