I told him his car is a perfect blank canvas 'as is' since it's not a concours level type starting place to begin with. It's a former race car and has had body work done to it that is nice but not super nice.
I advised him to leave it as is and let the next owner decide what color to paint it if in fact he even decides to paint it. I think it's the perfect hot rod right now since you wouldn't have to do anything to it except drive it to have fun with it.

That's good advice and spot on, Scott.
Getting a vehicle ready to sell involves certain things - but doesn't always mean sinking a ton of $ into it.
A LOT of it involves writing a good presentation & representation. And of course the photos & video to go along with it.
If done right it makes the entire process so much smoother and credible for both seller and prospective buyers.
A 67S - wow - sorry to see it go - but comes a time, I guess.....
