Have been trying to resize a pic sent from my phone to my e-mail...I think it worked. Just picked this up over in Canyon Tx. this past Friday. after all the normal checking and tinkering I fired it up and either needing the brakes bled or master cylinder replaced..its ready for a test drive in the morning. Interior is beautiful as is the body. Eng has about 4k on a total rebuild. New front glass, nice top. Has a header and a two barrel weber, electronic ignition...exhaust is new to the tip. No rust..couple of hail dings on hood and trunk which will be taken care of at the local PDR shop..no painting...YES. Getting to lazy fo my own body work. Two year old battery is great as well as nice sony c/d system. Along with the four new puppies at my shop, this will eventually need to go to a new home.

By the way...the blemishes on hood are actually clouds. Boy do I love cars I find out here in the high desert....
 
That's really clean, Jack. You have some great finds down there.
 
Have decided to make some changes to this thing. Bought new tires for it last nite and since I have some spare o/d transmissions I'm starting the removal process today. While apart I'm planning on dropping the front and rear ends and installing a wire wheel set I have..all rebushed, cleaned and ready. We have a local car show soon and am pretty sure I can garner some interest..if not..I'll try E-Bay. Being isolated out here in nowhere I'll probably have to assist in delivery.
