Well, I have been working on the ol girl in my spare time, got it realy running nice and cleaned up a little more. I did trade some stuff to my Dad for a set of whitewalls he had, 6.00 16 double whites! I know a lot of guys liked the blackwalls, but I think these really set it off. I know the caps are wrong for the year, but they were in way nicer shape then the 38 caps that came with it

That will be a perfect family-size V8 Ford for your distant future, Chris. We all know what marriage leads to...

Keep it!

very nice find. And it looks like the suns out. We had our first 80 degree day Saturday, and raining again today. I like the ww look.

Glad you made it to your driveway before you lost the brakes! Driving an unknown car always an adventure.

By the way, there must be some class for used car salesmen. How come so many times you call about seeing a car, they tell you someones on the way... Jeez, get real.

Anyway, enjoy driving her this summer! Roger

Looks like a nice car. It's a plus that it's a good runner. Just concentrate on all the safety stuff and worry about the rest as you see fit.
Best of luck with the car. It's a real find.

I installed the new fuel tank tonight...the old one was really crusty. I'm surprised the fuel lines were not clogged! Got that chore done and another test drive out in the sticks

Wish you were closer and I could just say "I'll take it"
Stinks that everytime I like a car, it's on the other side of the continent.
