I met with the 2nd owner of my car a few weeks ago. He gave me some new pictures from 73. At this point the lace paint was removed and a Warshawski hood scoop (Christmas present from his wife) was added. Love the Torq-Thrusts! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Is that a hood scoop grafted onto a stock flat hood, or a modification done to a GM cowl hood? Cool pictures.

Get out the sawzall! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] I didn't ask if he cut a hole for it or just threw it on top but that is the original flat hood there. The scoop came from Chicagoland's auto parts metropolis Warshawski (J.C. Whitney). Not sure if they are still around. My Dad used to order all his Model 'A' parts from there.

Love the day 2 pictures, Darren. My 69 RS/Z is a little like a day 2 car. It is really how they were most of there lives. Nice color. Thanks for sharing! sam [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

2nd owner is from Plano, Il. He still lives there. Here is a picture of him reunited with his old buddy.

Over winter he has had some health problems. He had bypass surgery 7 weeks before my visit. He is doing well but I figured my idea of rehab was best for him. See pic.
