50 Years old today
Well this day as come, Violet is 50 years old today. Born on May 13/1974.
I have had her since 2012, she was in ruff shape when I got her from a Barn (smelled like cow dung in there).
As of 2023, I have spent $18,315.30 on purchase and upgrades. (Cost breakdown attached).
Still yet to do: Door skins, Engine rebuild (tired 350 to fresh 383), 373 gears, shark bite suspension and maybe a 200R4 tranny.
Here is what she looks like now;
