I new to your forum, and would like to introduce myself, and ask a few questions. My name is Roger. I have always had a love for cars and restored many, but never a Fairlane I found a barn find 1963 Fairlane 2dr hardtop. That has been stored for the last 30+ years. Pros is that it has super straight body, original paint oxidized to a flat white, all the trim is ding free, air condition car with all original parts. Cons a lot of scratches dash pad is dust, seats carpets etc. The front bumper is pulled out as if some one had tried pulling it by the bumper and has not been driven.
Here are some questions that I need expert advice.
Should I restore it or just get it running and call it a survivor?
If I restore it where can I find emblems such as the roof side emblems, and gas tank lid tank emblem?
Any ideas where to find a good front bumper, and dash pad
Thank You
