1972 V Code Radiant Green

It has been a 11 year project. Just a few things left and she will be done.
It still is the original drive train. I need to do a few more things to be 100% but took her for a drive today for the first time. It felt good.

Absolutely gorgeous. I assume Terry Devilbiss has this one in his registry?

John, it looks fantastic! You really did that car justice and I'm glad you didn't make it into a 442 clone.

I just featured your car on the new Facebook V Code page a few weeks ago (July 26) in its "before" state. So nice to see you pop up here! The registry page is in rebuild mode, but the FB page is the stopgap and allows a lot more interaction.

Feel free to jump in there with updates on your car (just send me a join request). Otherwise, may I put an update in there on your behalf?

Great work! Do you have much history on the car you want to share? Welcome to CO!

Thanks Terry I have just joined. You sure can put the update in for me.
On a funny note I put my shifter **** in a safe place 10 years ago and still can not find it. So may need to buy one and as soon as I do I will find it.

Here's the old V Code registry website page for John's car to show what a great job he did. David Nicol had a couple older pics of it as well, probably before John owned it.

Too funny I thought it was 11 years. I guess it's been close to 13 how time flies when your having fun.

Is it for sale?

Let me know if you would ever like to sell it. This was my first car and I would love to have another one. John Timura johntimura1@gmail.com
