Just got back from looking at a restored '50 Champion Starlight. Gorgeous car. Restored by a non-Stude person, so you could pick it apart in judging, but... this thing is NICE. The "errors" are minor things - some plastic wiring, wrong upholstery fabric, incorrect wiper control knob, etc.. Little, easily correctable things.[^]
Restored maybe 15-16 years ago - driven probably not a thousand miles after that. For Sure, not driven since '99 Non-stock upholstery on the seats and door panels, but done right by a great upholsterer.
Engine compt gleaming, underside all but spotless. Five new radial WW tires and very nice blue paint job.
Wanting nothing but a new battery and someone to love it. Ol' gal selling it would take $8K for it. There's no question it's worth what she wants for it. Will she GET IT in these tight times? Who knows. I can tell you she's NOT hurtin' for the funds tho. I would trade our humble home for her "guest house" in a heartbeat!
