Tom, your right, I do love the L88 ragtops. The one being offered is probably the best restored convertible in the world in my opinion. I also love the 67 Yenko with the side pipes!

I like the red L88 coupes with the original motor,
and the red/red 71 LS6 convertibles with M22 With the original motors also, I think they only built one on 71 like that

Fran, your Nova looks beautiful.

Where are you from in Pgh? I'm originally from there.

Best of luck with your sale.

I really love the 67 Butternut Yellow Yenko. But that fan shroud bracket and horn placement has got me scratching my head or is this a Yenko thing.

Fran, gotcha. I grew up right next to Baldwin by South Park and lived in Finleyville for a while. My sister used to live in Charleroi and now lives in Allenport.

Your car looks very nice. I used to work with a kid from Belle Vernon named John who drove a '65 Mustang Coupe many years ago.

&quot;It scored 999 at Vettefest, won the Gold Spinner, and Diamond award.&quot;
