Pressure wash it, clear it, bag it, put some retro wheels on it, get some mexican blankets for seat covers, and enjoy.

I'm not saying it's not worth $8k... I'm just saying if I had $8k to spend on an old car I sure as shit wouldn't spend it on an 58 Olds.

Ding! We have a winnah!

Conversely, you could slap on a set of Torque Thrust II's and some Mickey Thompson sneakers, drop in a 572, a P'glide and a line lock on the front brakes and have one fun fog machine...

A 454 out of some old GM truck with some 4.11's would be more economical... But yeah, that's another option..

The chrome alone would be about 12-15K$ to restore!
