I have an older convertible that due to health, age and a distressed wallet, i'm unable to take to the finish line, I have been working on it for about three years now, there's not much that hasn't been rebuilt or replaced, it runs, drives, shifts, and stops, it's tagged/insured/registered, has maybe 45 miles on it since tagged, the motor runs great, the exhaust has a great tone to it, the reground camshaft gives it a little rumble, just a little over stock grind, the motor still has the EOS and oil since fired, a lot of money and time have been invested. At almost 70 and in failing health I just can't get out and work on it like I used to, I really don't have the storage to protect it from the elements and thieves I have pictures of building this car from day one, happy to send what i have and/or take any pictures requested and answer any questions, my cell number is 470-328-2243 and email is tcellguru@aol.com Here are the details.
