1970 Sx Coupe gets a facelift

Here are some pics of the recent SX Coupe we finished. This was an original paint car that had average wear and minimal rust. It got caught in a huge hailstorm while the owner was coming back home from a show. Bummer! He brought it to us for a freshen-up. We added the Glass Tech hood and correct hood stripes. While we had it apart, we recovered the seats using a Legendary upholstery set custom made with NOS cloth inserts. Lemme know what you think......

You can find more pics of the work here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cccstl/...7631939372083/

He pulls a race car with it....That's what he told me. LOL!
It has add on helper bags in the rear springs. He has owned the car since the late 70's.

My SX had one on it when I bought it back in 1976.
