I like how there are no shots of the car from the side except for the covered shot. Anyway the engine has a few items I absolutely despise.

Poll: are we really 95% done, 85% done, 75% done or is he 100% cooked?

Cool stripped down Euro paint job but I'm with you on the engine compartment.

Will be for sale for a while at that price.
 
He does say the car is 95% complete (has 95% of all the parts) He doesn't say what percentage it is completed.
 
You have the engine out and spent that much time on everything else but couldn't paint under the hood (at least black)? wtf! The grille looks nice like that but the tail light look terrible. Like the C clamps holing the sail panel head liner in! You don't see that option much!! And no trim around tail lights.
 
Looks like granny with her hd sewing machine did the dash recover. 318 with rattle can rebuild? All the alarm bells are going off.
 
This is the problem with the car hobby today. I'll go all the way back to blame B-J. After their auctions every Tom, Dick and JoeBob, thought hey I can do this sh*t and make money just like they do. No need to pay attention to detail whatsoever. We have all seen the result such as the one here right now. Some think they know something and they don't while others don't care. This guy thinks he knows how to restore a car while Lakeland Lash doesn't care as long as he makes some money off some unsuspecting yokel. I'll say yokel because anyone who really knows cars and how to restore them correctly would never be taken in by these guys. Essentially they are looking for someone similar to them who just has to have a car and get on the old car bandwagon. When I see cars like this I just shudder to wonder how well the mechanical systems where done, or not done, or even work.
