Welcome! I bet that’s quite a rare car to have in the UK.

Over $7 a gallon.

In East Tennessee I can currently get 93 octane for under $3 a gallon.

Congrats! Puts a smile on my face to see an American muscle car icon sitting in a British drive way (or car port?). Hope to see more of this in the future if these reciprocal trade deals get done.

Noticed it’s RHD. Did you have it imported or buy from a previous UK owner?
