You may have seen my post about the 65 442 I had coming from Vegas (was on Counting Cars Tuesday night). Anyway, it arrived today and is better than I'd hoped.

I have included a photo of it in my garage next to my cousin's 66 4 spd tri-carb car I picked up for him this past Saturday.

Very nice! It's always good to hear stories that end in "better than expected".

The better than expected is an unusual and welcomed outcome. I've had a few of those over the years, but usually it's worse than expected. I always love the ones that are advertised as 90% restored. That extra 10% is always a bitch and usually about half the value of the car needs to be spent to get the other 10.
