Hi,
Thankfully that’s not always the primary consideration……
It’s kind of like saying to an amateur golfer “surely you’re never going to win enough at this game to cover the costs of your equipment, club membership etc….”
Money isn’t what it’s about

People pay millions for a picture of some sunflowers or half a pickled sheep, value is in the eye of the beholder....................personally I'd rather spend a few grand on a Rover.

Well worth saving, though shame in a way that it's not being restored exactly as it was (regarding engine ect), but that's just me. It's still great that it's being done at all of course.
For some reason, I always thought that the Virginia Wade car was actually silver. ISTR a magazine article or advert mention it some years back. It or I could well be wrong though.....

If it was always about having equity at the end, I would almost have no work at all
