Project Car

1965 Volvo pv544
Uniberp has taken on a new project:
I bought this 1965 Volvo pv544 and had it brought home Saturday. Needs assembly, but the body is incredibly restored. It includes 99% of all parts necessary for re-assembly, including all new rubber seals.
My big decision is what windscreen to buy; they come in 3 colors: clear, green and green with a blue shade.
If you are going to undertake a restoration project, this is the way to do it. Pick up a project that is almost done, that way you have a chance of completing it. This one looks good, but it is still going to take a great deal of work to finish it. What's that rule of thumb? The last 10% of a job takes as much effort as the first 90%. Of course, that depends on much of a perfectionist you are and how much time you are willing to spend cleaning up bits that no one will ever see.

Yes I agree. This looks to be a doable project I am interested in following.
