69 Daytona Yellow BB in its new home
Arrived this past Wednesday, really nice!
3.36 gears make this fun to drive. Had it out this morning, tops off and back window out, was that a blast!.

Thank you all. I'll post more later.
When we first got it, it ran temp wise right at 210.
Dig some investigating and found it had a 195 thermostat. Replaced it with a 160. Just came back from a good thirty mile drive and temp stayed right around 175-180 with 90 degree temp. I think we're ready to cruise!
What an awesome machine...........

Drive it like you stole it...cause you did. These are the kind of cars you can just go out and get your thrills with...then come back home all sweaty with a big s**t eating grin on your face. Daytona Yellow will draw a lot of attention so hopefully no cops will be around when you light up the tires and start making some noise. Yours looks to be a fairly straight forward car...nothing funny or weird going on with it. Mine was more original and a bit rougher than yours. Enjoy your new toy.
