I love watching a car or truck being restored. Just seeing the before and after of it.

Restorations--Back before the gas/diesel prices made a huge jump making the parts and shipping of parts very expensive it was the way to go.
Nowadays- it's much cheaper buying a vehicle finished if it is done correctly.
Example: My dad still has a 58 Corvette in need of a restoration. If I do it-it will roughly cost 100K. If we have it done- it will cost about 150k. If we buy an already restored 58 at an auction- it will cost about 60K.
It's a lot like being "upside-down" on a house loan. You have much more in it- than what it's worth ---Very Easily!
