Adding another to the stable
This one found me....friend of mine and a member here, familiar with the car. Should have it in about a month while the owner fixes a bum relay..his back is bad and cant get to it the way he wants anymore, sad. Will try and honor his wishes, hopes he gets in a spot he can have it in his garage again. Too good a guy to have to give up on a dream

Looks like an awesome car!! Sometimes they do find you and you just have to bring them home. Great find!
