That is one sweet ride to restore!

Is it already mostly complete?
I ask because as mentioned, that first pic does look like an after pic.

I agree, the first one is a complete teaser. Rest of the pics is of tear down.

Good work Carsten. Love the pics. Keep em coming.

Wow you have gone through quite a bit of trouble and expense to get the Deville over to Germany. Where in Canada did the car come/ship from?
