Description

When someone wants to know whether a certain car they’ve found is a good candidate for restoration, I have just one question. How’s the trim? Is any of it missing? Is it pitted and rotted and rusting?
I guess that’s three questions, really, but you would be surprised by how many people think they’re money ahead buying a shell of a car for a few thousand less than a car with all its trim intact.
