Smile had it forever

Jodi is the 2nd owner has 35,000 miles on it powered by a 425 super rocket .Power everthing they used to drive it to lunch while she was growing up .He was a car nut owning over 125 cars . One day while going to lunch she asked if he would give her the car when he passed away , he lived a long life and about three years ago he passed away and as promised she got the car had a few glitches with it but it's her baby and i often joke about her rather cutting my throat than ever selling the car

What a beautiful car. And it stretches from one block to another. What a sad way to inherit a car, but I'm sure it will be loved, cherished and well cared for.

Stories like this are great.

Old blue is looking very nice!

Love the full size cars with fender skirts,hoods and trunks long enough to land a helicopter. Plenty of interior room,a real highway cruiser.
