I concur.  Mine looks good, but Larry's is over the top.  Probably only good 
for a
museum.  When you restore them to that level, you have three choices: sell it,
drive it or put it under glass.  Most sell them because they can't bear to see 
the
everyday wear and tear from frequent driving.  Mine is probably Bronze level or
close to Gold and it cost me somewhat close to Allen's bid and to restore and 
SEVEN
years of effort.  No, $30,000 won't cover it.
