Pretty but something is missing... The rocker panels are blacked out.

Maybe they're reflecting the black top surface under the car...

Good looking vert though.

Now I am confused??? 69 rocker panels are supposed to be black. Black fiberglass with a trim piece across the top. Just like the picture.

You are welcome Rick.

I agree it is inspiring.

Helps keep the vision in front of you.

Great color combo you'll have

The only thing is wish the owner did different would be to not have

cropped the photo so we could see all of that great ride.

A shot of equal quality from a 3/4 rear angle would have been a plus

also.

I don't know market pricing on that particular car but they have got

a buy now of $55K.
