I think you need to read page 2 of the thread Thomas, the car is well underway in its restoration.

It has been over a year again since my last post. Amazing how long these projects can take, especially with three of them going on at the same time. The Caddy is making some (slow) progress. Attached is a recent pic. It's starting to look like a new car again!

My comment : sell the car on a site like ebay so the whole world sees it .Many of those projects go to eastern europe where professional people work for lesser  money than in our countries .Than you add the money to buy a nice same car because you will spend the money in any way in blood , sweat and tears as they say .For me life is to short to spend in rust , dust and inhale those fumes while welding .Some people get high on welding fumes and are happy while doing that but that is not me .

My project is almost finished. I appreciate all the advice I've gotten from this forum over the years. It has been a long time coming and an even bigger stack of dollars but I have no regrets.
