Love originality, love "patina" etc, but in my book, that doesn't extend to the retaining of very large dents on front guards.....IMHO of course.

Very nice wagon! A definite charm to it, and all the better if it has a galv chassis etc under it, will go on for ever. Pete

That wing has a couple of perforations in as well so would require replacement rather than repair, then it wouldn't be original, it's a tough call and not one I'll be making, I like it the way it is which is why I bought it Thumbs Up

I agree with both ..but surely its not original if its on a new chassis? ( which I understand and think is perfect)
so why not have the wing repaired....
Yeah its a tough call for sure!

Love the car thou..but would have to "make better"
"Patina" is a weird concept.
