Nice!! Beautiful looking '73.

Do me a favor? Move it away from the garage door just a little - making me nervous.

SWEET! I DO like a nice '73.
We hauled mine about 500 miles on a u-haul and I was really impressed how easily it loaded, strapped down, and how well the trip went. I could have borrowed a trailer but for a hundred bucks it was worth not having to drag an empty trailer back.
Enjoy the ride!
