Hope the wife likes it. I'm going to give it to her next month. It's a 67 T code car with a 302/3 speed/9" and all new suspension underneath. It needs about a thousand little things, but it made the 300 mile drive from Dallas and averaged 15mpg.

Yeah, friend was driving my hatch while I was in the 67. He went with me to pick up the 67 today.

LOL, I didn't even notice it, had to go back for a second look, and there wasn't even a babe draped over it, and I missed it!

LOL, don't think that is going to be a problem. Every time we see a first gen driving she goes on and on about how bad she wants one but knows she will never have one.
