    That is way cool. Wish I'd had the time, money and tools to do that.

    What are the plans for the car?

          hmm... just noticed the "fire hazard" 2G alternator. Might want to consider a 3G upgrade if parts are available.

                  Hello, Thank you all! The budget has already passed the bar car $ 35k, and the work is not finished yet. Plans for the car? Daily riding The biggest amount of work that is rotten body. Before I bought this car 3 years, he stood on the street. In order that you understand the price of these cars here, the car sold for $ 6500, but I took it for $ 3900. At the moment we have restored two Cadillac Series 62 1959, one Eldorado 1955, continental coupe 1958 and impala custom 72. I'll upload a few photos of the day from the beginning. Sorry for my google translate )

                          I am amazed at how much these cost over there.

                          The frame off restoration would be at least that much here, if you paid someone to do it.

                              Probably not many of those in Ukraine! I want to go to Kiev, I'm very interested in it, do you like it? Anyways, doing a great job on the car, fixing it up right. Also, not trying to be creepy (too late lol), but I took a look around your Facebook and noticed you have a beautiful girlfriend Ukrainian women are some of the prettiest in the world, fact.

                                The car is restored to the service station affiliate, I am the owner of a motorcycle shop here, and it almost cost price. At a time when I was looking for Marquis, Sales was another in 1989 for $ 9k.
                                He was in perfect condition, but it later crash.
