Leave it alone, looks great as is.

Great looking car.

Leave it alone, unless you really love the yellow interior. The mag covers make the car...looks beautiful.

Cool car in a great color combo. The N96 caps look sharp on there.

You guys are the greatest and thanks for all the compliments. (Budnate---I laughed when I saw that spoiler pic.) Again, the car looks great in the pics but in person it shows almost all of its 38 years. Someone mentioned Cragars and traction bars---believe me, it's difficult not to 'play' with this car. I have a set of original '60s American Torque Thrusts (14x6) that I had professionally restored and I'm toying with the idea of swapping the Coker redlines on for an easy Day 2 look. If you look at Kevin Suydam's orange '68 Dana you'll see the same wheels and redlines. I love that look. Rest assured guys, the more I read "leave it alone" the more I am convinced to do just that. Thanks again everybody!

By the way Bruce (Xplantdad), any good news???

Bill,
I've seen your car in person, you don't do her justice - she looks great for her age! Let me put it this way, I would ask her out in a second, if she wasn't already taken!!

Hey Sam, we need to "wow" these guys with a picture of our '67s parked together. SS/RS's, N96's, F70 redlines, and the color contrasts would make for a killer photo.

Yeah, my girl's been well-used in her 38 years but she still looks pretty damn good.

It's a real treasure as is....new black interior and all. You cannot beat the patina of a real original. Don't mess with it.

Since it's an original California car (SoCal) and I am from the SF bay area I had to have these Doug Dicker frames I found on eBay. "Does the little lady need a new car? Then bring her in and we'll Dicker!" San Rafael is in Marin County just north of San Francisco.
