Thank You CO

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to say thanks again to all of you for all of your help over the last few years. Our build really turned out the way we dreamed and I can’t thank you guys enough. I asked an amazing amount of idiotic questions and you were always helpful.

Interestingly enough, CarCraft picked up the story so I hope you enjoy the short read.

Thanks again,

Ben

congrats, great article! Love the color. Those rims look awesome as does the whole car. Is that a Standard 72 "S" grill, I really like the look of the grill.

Thanks! Yes those are original grilles for a 72 S. They still don’t repop them and the tabs are usually broken but I lucked out and found a NOS set here.

No problem! Thanks for letting me bend your ear about the LGT 700 before I bought! Yours looks great as well!
