Default New C2 Stable Mate

Just got home at 2am this morning with a new garage mate for the 57 and the 03. We drove over 900 miles in 14 hrs on Tuesday, then turned around the next day with the car to do it all over again. It needs some cleaning and detailing but that will be my winter project this year. Gotta drive it and enjoy it this summer first. Ok, its a matching number 390hp, 4 speed, both tops, sidepipes, bolt on's (aftermarket) and 3:08 gears. It has 73k miles but hasn't been off the frame. Everything works right now.

Cleaning that is going to take tens of minutes. Congratulations. It's a beautiful car and appears to be in great condition.

Why is there no charge for leather seats?

Doesn’t it though. I was thinking about that going down. I almost posted yesterday morning at 3am because I couldn’t sleep but then I thought maybe I’ll wait this time. Thankfully this had a different outcome.

An amazing find for sure. There's nothing better then finding one that's ready to go and a big block to boot. Enjoy!
