Mark has already cut a roof off a parts cars and welded it to his car. He has so much work in his car, he'll never recoup his expenses. Good thing it's the first car he ever owned and the sentimental value is worth all this. His will be the most perfect Aero ever built!
There's sheetmetal from my original car, a parts car I've had for 20 plus yrs, a 1/2 car I bought 3 yrs ago, a grill shell from another car Duane has, reproduced repair sections plus NOS rockers, hood, front fenders, trunk and front & rear splash panels. The drive train & hard parts are pretty much what I drove in the 70's.
The price of sentimentalism, holy crap, there's no reasonable explanation....... really. Much smarter to just buy the nicest Aero you could possibly find.
I do have 3 grandsons close to getting their licenses and they want to learn to drive a clutch. I'd really like to get it built so they can learn on the same car I did. Sometimes they help me work on it too.
