Funny, people have been saying that for years, and I'm just not sure I buy
into the logic. I understand the reasoning, inasmuch as very, very few cars
bring at sale anything near the total amount spent to "restore" them.

As I am prone to saying: do people expect to get their money back out of
their set of clubs and greens fees?  Heck no!  IT'S A HOBBY!  If you enjoy
restoring cars, what difference does it make if it is profitable.  Enjoy
yourself.
