Thanks a lot David. Not to be repetitious, I am speechless with all the friedliness of this Club. Truly feels like family.

The nicer the car, the nicer the people seem.

Also, you have a beauty in your hands, quite a gem!

The only older classics I have ever truly admired were in order.
1. 1953
2. 1959
3. 1962
4. 1963 split window
5. 1967 awesome cars in my book.

Really liking the red vert!!! My wife did not want ME to get Red and like a good husband I didn't. On the Avatar instructions, sorry for the first reply I was at the gym on my iPhone. Go into user settings, edit profile and then select Avatar. Select picture from your computer files as Avatar. From the looks of it, I think you already have it down. Sorry for the late reply.

Not all buddy.
I finally figured it out. Your wife is right about the red color. It is called arrets me red; however, they have to catch me first even within old age of 61, but this Vert makes me feel young again. I guess you can call it my second late life crisis.
Nice talking to you, respectfully

Just be careful, my '72 is still being repaired from a wreck last year. IT was the worst day of life.



Enjoy it, but be safe.

Wasn't that the last year for chrome front bumpers?
