    I never thought it was JUNK. My wife on the other hand would think I’d lost my mind if I ever thought about purchasing a vehicle that looked like that. This vintage beauty needs to be brought back to its former glory. I know Richard said he wasn’t a fan of the continental kit but that just adds to its mystique. Love the new shop, next investment is a lift.👍👍🇨🇦

    Please give it a good budget restoration and please keep the continental kit, thats what sets that car apart from other 51s and is classy looking.

    Your right those Chevy straight 6’s are great engines. A friend lost his shop to a fire over the summer. He had a 1935 Dodge he was working on. And even though it went through a fire he is going to continue with the project. Name of his Channel is Half Ass Customs. If you want to check him out. Richard you and Christina are one of my favorite people. If you decide to rebuild. It can be done for sure. You guys are the best. The 1951- 1954 Chevy straight 6’s were great. I think you can do a little body work and create an interior. And a new wiring harness and Radiator. You got a Car. Never would attempt to restore. Your haunted 1949 has bad Mojo. This car wants to live again. Love the new shop. Anything makes your wrenching easier. I’m excited as well. Thank you Richard and Christina ❤️💯👍

    Now you have plenty of time to think about what you want to do with it now that its home.
    I say bolt it back together, get it drivable, and do a satin clear right over that fire damaged
    rust. It'll look authentic and it will tell a story.

    Great video, so happy for you two that you finally have a place to be able to continue to do what you're doing. I love the new digs and it's just what you've been needing. I don't think I could ever have continued my love for bringing back old vehicles without building my pole barn and having some room to work and store my vehicles inside. With such a nice running motor in that car, go ahead and restore it to some degree and make it a driver. I could also live without the continental kit, I'm not a fan and on a fully restored car that would look great, so go ahead and sell it off.

    • @whattherust

    I thought you were nuts 😢 but yet 😮 wonderful challenge. To have the little lady supporting you. You are a lucky man 😅.

    Congratulations on getting a shop. Plenty of space out of the weather and you could even have a spray booth. Suggestion - put in a decent heating system for a specific insulated area first. AC too for the summer. You'll thank yourself!
    Another plus: the neighbors at your house will like you better 😉
