consider yourself hit. I love convertable Anythings. Love them fins, my dad had a 59 Dodge(sedan sadly) got broadsided by a 55 chebby doing 50-70 mph. All five people in the dodge survived. If it was a unibody instead of full frame, I highly doubt anyone would have survived.

neato! The red hood springs beg the question, were they color coded for weight of hood or what??? why red?

 

[69.5CUDA]

id guess red would be a weight thing...that new side post battery looks silly in there

i didnt say i dont like all verts...just that for some reason the lack of a top makes the fins look silly on that car....imo it looks MUCH better with the top up

looks like 57's giving birth (the fins)

Ya but would you be able to get $150,000 worth of enjoyment out of it? It is a real shame that people are buying cars paying big bucks for them and then never really driving them

This and Robs WIW gtx question remind me...

A wiser man than me once said "Mike, no matter how much money you do or don't throw at that car, you are still driving a 1969 GTX, enjoy it!":xl: today's prices I'd say I got a steering wheel and a console's worth of fun for sure.

Check out where the master cylinder sits......... I helped a guy recently replace one and bleed the brakes, refilling as we bled down was a MF@#$%^& and try to not spill any on anything else just sucked.
