Thanks for the input guys. Ive never been on a thread where people cared so much about what someone else does or doesn't do with their cars. With the most respect to everyone we appreciate the concern but as Im sure you know people are going to do what they want. When a person can buy 20 original cars they dont see the value in them like someone who grew up with them or maybe owned one at some point in their life. Its just a toy in a toy box to some. Im not going to discuss the owner and I personal relationship and what business I have asking questions with just anyone. Making statements like “he has bigger plans than the owner is a snide comment and not necessary. We are all adults and professionals here I would hope. I enjoy the research and learning and he enjoys it as well and its been fun. Im will continue to ask questions and if you have constructive input I thank you.

That said , so when people restore cars im guessing they are just cutting all new aluminum panels and using them, as it would seem impossible to reproduce the factory finish on panels with scrtches, dents road rash etc..
