All too familiar story. I seem to gravitate to things that are hard to restore. I have parted out several 73/74 RRs and Satellites when I lived in Iowa. Their value is going up. More and more people are starting to like them. I have a very nice offer on the table for mine but I have too much heart and soul in it to accept the offer. And it is a blast to drive. They have such good street manners. I really think I would have spent less money doing a 69.
