Restoring an antique sports car is not rewarding by how much money you can make. It has to be a work of love. From personal experience if you don't love what you are doing that can be reflected in the quality of the project. Time,money and dedication are major benefactors. The more of each you have the more you can get done. If you are looking to get in to the auto restoration business heed these words research the target market of what you are going to be selling to. Never invest more than your projected profit will be otherwise you are loosing money. however if you are restoring an antique sports car for purely enjoyment well the sky's the limit do what you heart desires to make the perfect car in your own eyes. Pay attention to detail do not overlook the slightest thing even the littlest thing can retract from the value and prestige. most of all try to enjoy what you are doing otherwise its just another job.
