That Mustang is fantastic. Love your Z. Looks a lot like my old one.

Ken, Personally, I'd fix the that lower, Use lacquer and blow it in as low as possible. I wouldn't clear the whole quarter or even to the body line, just keep it real low, leave the pinchweld on the quarter alone or it will looked like it was rusted and fixed. Worst case scenario is it looks like it was fixed 30 years ago and that in my mind is better than that dent, otherwise leave it alone

Leave it and drive it. Why turn it into another restored car. There are thousands of those out there!

I am also in the antique tractor hobby and guys are paying a premium for original paint, unmolested, super nice originals..and these tractors are selling...restored ones not so much...they are a dime a dozen.

An elderly neighbor on the road I grew up on died 4 years ago and his heirs put up his all original 8N he bought new fro auction..original paint, tires etc..1100 original hours no rust or dents, in heated garage it's entire life, never been rained on sold for $7500 while restored ones are going for 4-5k. Guys were coming down to look at it and taking pics of it for restoring theirs.

really depends on how nice the car is. Tough to tell by pictures. NO need to restore it but maybe a repaint? If it is junky looking why think because it is a &quot;survivor&quot; that it will be worth more? There are still survivor Z/28's and many other cars out there in survivor condition. Really depends how bad it is or if you get sick of looking at it in that state of condition. If it makes you feel better calling it a survivor than leave it but don't start fixing things here and there and blowing in the front valance, rear quarter or left door bottom etc. Just my opinion though.

Cool looking Z!! WOW!!
I will chime in and say please do not restore. Just clean the heck out of it and enjoy.

Hey guys. I have all the pic from this Z in a file on my computer. It's actually a mhtml file I copied when I was looking at it the first time it was on ebay. There are about 50 or so pics but I don't have a clue how to even post them in this format. Any ideas?
