Hello,

My name is John and I own two 70 442 holiday coupes.
One I purchased out of California earlier this year.

The other I inherited from my dad in 81, I drove it for a few years and it went into garage storage for 19 years. It was resurrected late last year and has been going through a complete restofication process. It is almost completed.

Just about everything on the car is rebuilt or has been replaced.
