[Zmagnette] Preservation

[Steven Trovato]

Phil,

Yes, I do plan to do what pleases me.  I am not a slave to the 
opinions of others, but I am interested in the thoughts of people I 
respect.  I have no plans for a full restoration at this time.  I am 
going to keep driving my car and enjoying it.  I'm not really looking 
for votes on what I should do.  I am interested in hearing what 
people think of this trend in general.  I am also interested in 
learning more techniques and strategies for owning and maintaining a 
car with a preservation attitude.
