correction 1- a full and correct restoration is not cheap or easy to do with factory correct parts.

correction 2- a nice custom built with catalog ordered parts does not always take a lot of thought or talent.

but, they both take a lot of $$$!!

We should all build what we like like, and respect each others choices...

...but I would certainly love to restore that cool burb, ...but maybe add disc brakes, oh, and maybe a few custom touches...
I agree that both paths take a bunch of money & time if executed properly, but either way, shouldn't it be the owner that makes the call on what to do?
