Hi all, I've been having some trouble contacting anyone in my local chapter, so I thought I would try posting here.
My dad just gave me the car I listed above, it's really in pretty nice shape (41k original miles) but needs some love in a few places.
My questions are a couple: What kind of value does this car have? I can find very little online, and while I don't want to sell it, I DO want to insure it correctly. Second, how hard should I work to keep all the parts and such original? Does stuff matter even down to like the wiper blades and power window switch? The carb looks like it needs to be rebuilt, so am I better off having that done or just buying a new (NOS?) one altogether? If so, what's a good price for either? Basically I just have tons of questions
I'm fairly new at this as well, and don't want to get ripped off, either.
Any help appeciated, seems like a great community.
Thanks all, in advance.
