Having my own tow truck sure does come in handy at times. I was trying to beat the rain and the positive cable decided to melt on the exhaust. Still working out the bugs on this one....

What color is that...Coronado Gold?? It's gorgeous, but I may be biased.

Good eye! Coronado it is. The shop said there was no modern mix formula for it they could find so they started with Aztec gold and lightened it with some silver for the color match. It really catches the sun the times I've been able to see it outside. For right now, I'm just glad to have the engine in place and running finally.

Hoping to have it on the street by the end of June. Just waiting on the driveshaft and seats to get done.

Thanks, it's good but not great. I'm slowly changing out the things I don't like.

Yes it is him and his brother on Day 1 when George bought it new.
He kept it a real long time and took good care of it.
Believe a PY member owns it now.

It was in the 60s here today, with dry and salt-free roads. A super rare thing in Michigan in mid-December. Great opportunity to intrude on the cars' winter hibernation and get them out for some exercise!
