Given the great abundance of parts for our Bs, too the extent of new body
shells by BMH, I wonder what "well restored" means.
For that price, one could build from the ground up, as in Lindsay Porter's
Book, and not get a knuckle skinned or a dirty fingernail (paying the
"experts" to do it), and still have change to spare.
Is this only proof of Mr. Barnum's famous quote?... or am I missing
something.
