Restoration Costs Spreadsheet for '69 S4 SE FHC Elan

• Page 1 of 1
As I embarked on tearing apart my late fathers '69 Elan which had sat uncovered in the Southern California sun for 20 years, I suddenly realized I had opened a financial Pandora's box. With many parts completely destroyed or rusted out and others salvageable with varying amounts of effort, I had no way of keeping track of how much everything was going to cost once the rebuilding began. I knew I needed a way of triaging what to fix, what I could improvise and what I had to buy new.
I spent the afternoon yesterday cutting, pasting and reformatting the parts list from the Wiki page to build my own restoration manual with columns for vendors and costs. I cannot upload the entire 195 page document, so I've attached the first 30 pages in PDF. I have it in Pages for iOS as well. DM me if you'd like me to send it you the entire 7.5 MB document.
Once again into the breech!

our cars must retain their mythical status for a married couple, which means: parts are cheap, even if they aren't, major parts like a steel crank were a give away AND the value of the car is no higher than 20grand US (= SFr) ! ..............and that's the classified information which i share with HER! sandy: keeping the myths moving!
