Here is the picture..... 'You' have bought this car. Here is the question...... What would you do with it? Be interesting to hear opinions.

If it was mine, I would be terrified to use it as i would want to preserve it. But would this be right as its meant to be enjoyed? So many opinions..... whats yours?

Always a good debate Paul.  Smiley

I'm definetly in the "use it" category. I've no interest in saving it just for someone else to enjoy...although I would take exceptional care of it while I'm at it.  Wink

It's surely a wonderful example. Personally i prefer the early 70's model. I like the chrome bumpers instead of these huge beams... Wink

Will be interesting to see if they make a profit or not. I might be wrong but I think the seller makes his living by buying nice cars, detailing them and preparing them to a high standard and selling them on for a profit.
