Sounds beautiful!

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

It's a nice looking car. I forgot to mention I also have original build sheet (in not so good shape) and a color copy of the original california title.
additionally: new front suspension, new axle and main carrier berings, new front glass, all new rubber and seals, new body bushings.

You have to up load your pictures to either picasa web or photo bucket and then copy the link to your photo album to this site. I think you must make the pictures available for public viewing as well in picasa.

Here is the link. Sounds like a nice car.

I just knew that would be a BEAUTIFUL car! But too many projects of my own right now. Good luck, she's worth it!

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

Beautiful car. Probably would be a good idea to post some pics of your PHS documents to show authenticity and save you a bunch of questions.

Not sure what you mean. Look at the first post in the thread, then read through each one to my post. Then I think you will get it.

Unless I'm mistaken- it was sold and then the new owner put the sticker on the side and is trying to flip it- correct?

I think I left out the word "will" in my last comment. Wondering how long the new owner "dealer" will have it for...
