History
Bought this car in 1977. Second owner. I was just 17 years old at the time. As you see the car it was completed in 1985. Got married. Then I started a family. Money was tight. Now kids are grown up & married. now I can finally complete this money pit with all the new technology that has become available. Can't wait. Currently rebuilding the motor. Car is currently stripped right down. Undergoing a major facelift.
