One of the reasons I'm so grouchy all the time is because many people here get a cab that could be restored with minimum effort or cost and hack it up, putting on a nasty control panel, cup holders, ect.  Their excuse is always "the side art was mostly gone"  or "the cab was stripped when I got it".  I realize this sounds extreme to many of you, but that is exactly my point.  

A true preservationist would think nothing of restoring these beat up cabs, while most of the people here don't think it's worth it.  

I am extremely pro restoration, but I don't think there is enough demand in this particular community for a dedicated forum.  I've seen maybe 4 restoration questions this YEAR.

i completely agree with every word you said...  there are only so many times someone needs help getting paint off or covering cigarrete burns

NiN^_^NiN:
I think it's a good idea as i wanna restore a old old old b&w cab but i can't find any information on 1 small part dont even know what it is :(

But this board already has so many forums on each subject i dont think it would be good in the long run there just 2many boards for me to look at right now i dont want another 1  :o
