Hi folks.
Picked up a farm fresh 75 Stingray a couple of months ago. It's nice to be able to open the hood on a car again and see and be able to work on the motor.
The car was in a barn. To my surprise it did run pretty well. But it looked like it was shot at and missed and shyt at and hit.

At this time the car has been striped down to go to the paint shop. I have bought all the badges and emblems and just need the rubber door seals and what not. Some of the inside pieces need replacing and I'm working on getting those items. In the mean time I'm doing all the mech. on it now. April is the target date to go to paint. Should have all the mech. done by then. I'm not looking to make it a show car but just something to Cruz around in on nice days.....when I'm not out riding the enduro.

Other than that I have been lurking and reading threads here in the forums.
Cheer's Kurt

here's a pic. of her when I got her home:
