i have been looking/ wanting for years, didn't want a pig with lip stick, this one is not perfect buts its dam nice, one repaint not sure how long ago. the 390's make it fun off the lights but not a good commuter, works 30 miles out from home, just pulled the triger on a silver sport 5spd trans. no floor cutting or major mods.

Probably a long shot but I saw a car that looked like that in Springfield VT a few years ago, if its the same car it was owned by a doctor at the time. I believe he said he had some work done on it at Green Mountain Classics, also in Springfield.

Welcome SwampJuice.

You've been lurking for awhile, glad you found a nice ride. One of my favorite color combos. Nice.

The receipts from Arizona who's name is on them? Ed Hart? There was a car like that in Tucson back in the 80's but did not have a wing on it at that time.

Four speed AND power windows? So it -can- be done. Beautiful car.

Very attractive car, four speed and a convertible in viking blue and white, doesn't get much better than that combo. Welcome to the site.
