			Car looks great, and don't worry, $90K is just a drop in the bucket, I'm wayyyy past that with my 69 Z28.  The way I would look at, you could have had that $90K in the stock market a couple of years ago and it would be worth $45K now!  And you're right, a lot of people refer to a car as "restored" when it's not close to actually being restored, it's more likely repainted or partially rebuilt.

Such a true statement by both you guys.  I get a lot of calls from people looking to get a car "restored" and they have budgets of 3-5k haha.
