You guys are tough competition, but here's a few pictures of my '71 LS5 Convertible with original paint, interior, and some boring basic engine photos.
I just took these pictures a few minutes ago.

The first one was taken 9/2/2002 with the hardtop off, and the others were taken today.

For you guys with AC can you post a picture of how the radiator tank (one on the fender) has the hoses run? Also if you can post pictures of the electrical connections to the evaporator box that would be helpful.

My 70 was taken apart over 20 years ago by previous owner and am trying to put it back together. I will be ordering the last of the known AC hoses and brackets that I need this week. Still need to figure out the POA rebuild process for 134a (which vendor to go with) and get expansion valve on order.

This the only big block and only air car in the family (dad has 3 1970 coupes)
