Hi Guys and girls my Name is Jodi and in 1966 My grandfather bought a 98 ragtop I was born in 1975 and when ever my grandfather would take me anywhere he always would ask what car I wanted to go in Keep in mine this man usually owned 2 to 3 cars and a pickup truck at anygiven time I would always say Old Blue our nickname for the ragtop 98.when I was about 10 I asked him if he would someday give me the car and we lost grandpa a couple of years ago and he left old blue to me if I could post a picture of it I think you would be amazed as to how well he kept it for me knowing that some day he would pass it on it has a 425 4 barrell and my Husband has been working on it slowly to bring it up to perfect shape
