Hurts my soul to see classics cut up or even parted out.
Maybe I'm just worried that's what's going to happen to me one day.

We promise not to make a grill out of you.

This was my nine year project that was going to be a "quick strip and paint" and a little mechanical work…. that nine years included having two kids and building a room addition to the house…. while I had to cut off and replace the roof skin, tail light panel and bumper valance, rebuild the engine and suspension…. accompanied by many moments of standing in the garage at night with the thought of "I'll NEVER finish this project!"….

Yes…. 1965 "plain jane" 289/automatic coupe…. restored it to factory correct, near concourse condition…. was going to do shows with it but after only having time for four shows in over five years because of three young kids playing ball and other sports activities, I sold the car…. but did take two first prize and one second in the "occasional driver" category….
