Oh no!! I’m bummed. You put so much good work into that car. I’ve enjoyed following your build. I was excited to see it getting closer to 100%. Aww.

The key word here is "maybe"
But if it is time I can understand that. I'm sure it was fun getting it back on the road.
I've question how long I'll keep mine when I get it back on the road. Not a lot of things you can do with it.
Picking up woman is no longer an option.

Oh I can find things to do with it but the reality is will I honestly ever paint it before I'm too old to get in it? Doubtful - 3 years and haven't touched the sandpaper yet. LIkely just been in denial for the last 5-8 years that it'll be done.

Seems like a pretty solid deal for someone who is looking for a driving Sterling. Not often you find one that runs and drives. Sad to see you might pass the torch but I definetly understand. The last 20% is always the hardest and often the most expensive. Paint and body can be rough if you are not doing it yourself. I think its a great car and someone would be way ahead of the game if they started with a driver. Good Luck!

You know body and paint is rough no matter who does it! The cost if you pay for it or the time if you do it. :)

I’m interested. I’m just trying to figure out how I’m going to be able to look the car over. I’m currently renovating a house for my son and don’t have the free time to travel.

If you're serious about it I'm happy to send any pictures and videos to you if you have specific questions. We can also do a Zoom and I can walk you around.

I can't edit the original post but this is no longer for sale. Put 3 things on the to-do list for it and I'm going to keep it.

I know that things change and projects come and go but I’m sincerely happy to see you holding onto this for now. You’ve been doing a really nice job with it.

I'm trying to find a post of your car so I can have a rough determination of value I've been in contact and am interested but I need more information to realistically offer a price
