    Looks nice. If only mine were that far. Look like he put a different hood on which is what I plan to do. I found one today but it is $475 and 300 miles away

    I've seen your car somewhere, was it on Craig's List or Ebay?? Someone posted that it was the twin to mine (and Franks)
    If you need anything let me know, I have all the paint codes for the 2 different greens inside, and the white and green outside, and for the headliner.
    Awesome Car!!! What are the spec's? Serial Number, Options, etc....

    The car has been sitting under cover for the last 14 years in Ford Washington. The last set of tabs expired 10/94. It is actually in pretty good shape, and it does runbut misses slightly. I'm thinking a burnt valve. I am thinking of changing the color, but haven't made up my mind. The motor and tranny come out this fall and hopefully back in next spring to summer after new paint.
