I got the trunk mat and flapper door from the Parts Place. This is the first time I have ordered from them since 2003. The flapper door fits the original OAI top perfect but it has a bad bow in the middle of it. I got it and the trunk mat installed tonight. The trunk mat is ok but they are sure not like originals. After installing the tire I realized I didn't even clean it. I need to take it back out and clean it up a little better.

Continue to be envious of your collection, especially after your attention to detail is applied.

I think it is just that my pictures hide stuff

Will you be at MCACN again this year? If so I will be in the barn find section with the 4 speed Jetfire. If I remember right, I was getting pulled away last year when we were talking.

Don't think it is in the cards this year. Maybe a 5-10 percent chance, too much going on this year.

I would love too really enjoyed last year. I would like to see your Jetfire, and a couple of others.

Yes, you were pretty busy, as would be expected. No biggie on my end, I appreciated the time you did have to talk.

This car had two new BFG 245 60 14 tires on it and don't match the good used front tires. I ordered two more BFG so it can have a matching set. Mismatched tires are a pet peeve of mine. Even thought I will be selling it I just can't stand it.

Took it for another drive today. I miss driving these cars on a regular basis like I did in high school.

I keep forgetting about the idler arm. It was slightly loose but could not tell when driving. I had a nice tight used one and swapped it out tonight while I was thinking about it. I don't think I will notice but I will take it for another drive and see. I will use anything as a excuse to take it for a drive

I got the new tires installed and got the tow adjusted. I took it out on I-70 yesterday for 50 miles and it does great. It was around 28 degrees out and the heater was keeping it nice and warm. I always thought that convertibles would be bad in the winter but I must have been wrong.

I decided to pull the radiator out and get it re-cored. With the bad heater core I replaced I thought the radiator was likely bad. After pulling it out I am glad I did. It was not long for this world. I am glad I looked at it because I will be selling the car and would have hated it to go out on someone right after selling it. It was the original radiator so I had it recored instead of replacing it. Was only $370 with a nice USA made core. (Kenny's Radiator Indianapolis Indiana)

Was going to list it on eBay this weekend but decided to hold off a little longer. If it will work out I am still hoping to drive it some this Spring before letting it go.

This car will be on eBay soon.

Cool thread and nice job on the car. Good luck with the sale...

If I only had the money for two of them at this time, 😢

Please let us know when its listed. If I could figure out how I would love to have that car!

Here is a link to the for sale ad I made. I have $27,000 on it now but if not sold by the time I get the eBay ad done I will list it there. I am thinking about late February before I have the eBay listing ready.
