I also think that this purchase was not an honest transaction by the seller. I have also bought cars at the auction that were "not as described". Unfortunately unless you want to give much money to a lawyer you have to make the best of it. I am sure that in your capable hands this car will become a thing on mechanical integrity and great beauty! You may not make a large, or any profit from this however you will be able to deliver this car to a new owner/collector some day with great pride in your skill, craftsmanship and integrity. I love these cars and I greatly enjoy watching all of your videos. Even the family meal video portions. You can take great pride in the children you are raising! Greetings from Idaho USA! I am also a car enthusiast. I have owned many old cars. I still have several to rebuild. Thank you for your fine videos! P.S. My appreciation also extends to all of your friends (and your children) who help you in the restorations. This reminds me of when I was young working on cars with my friends. I do wish you could/would add English subtitles. I use the youtube "auto-translate" function but it performs very poorly and I miss a lot of the dialog. However I understand that you may not be fluent in English just as I am not fluent in Japanese.
