I hear that Brian guy is a real pain in the @$$...LOL!
Thank you very much for your kind words about my '68! The car started its life as a 400 column shift auto. The goal during the restoration completed in August was to keep it as stock as possible. Of course some liberties were taken(15 inch rally IIs, wheel well moldings on standard car, hood tach, console, rear seat speaker, etc.) among the things offered from the factory.
Most of the credit on the car goes to Chris, Galen, Brad, and Bobby at CW Restorations. And some very helpful assistance(and parts) from garlanka(he lives down the road from me) and many others at this site and at PY. I started out just hoping to get some power brakes for the car, I didn't imagine it would turn into a complete frame off restoration.
For what it is worth, I now have a '68 Verdoro green convertible to go with the coupe. Im hoping to have it on the road some time in 2013.
PS Mark, I've always been jealous of your car's color scheme. Redlines go better with it than any other color in my opinion.
