It might be different if you were capable of doing the work yourself, but it doesn't make sense to pour money into a car which is not a necessity but an indulgence.

Surely if it's an indulgence, a hobby, something that's not a necessity and you do it because you want to preserve the vehicles for posterity, in other words you have the love, oh and the money, then you don't mind indulging yourself. However if it's just transport and money is a potential issue and/or you already have other 75's and you've lost the lurv for this one then I can see why you'd want to move it on.
