Reading the lists of "do nots" reminded me of the 1970's and 1980's, when you saw some really cool musclecars, but the owner thought it was a good idea to install a sunroof!

Dave... I was pretty impressed by its untouched (original owner car) status that I did not take any pictures of the outside. The owner traded in the original cragars and M/T rubber for some modern BFG Radial T/A and new style S/S Wheels. Those are the only shots of the car I have. It was a tri-power car with a lot of chrome under the hood. The same Sun Blue line gagues he has on the cowl area are found under the hood too. The windows were decorated with drag racing stickers. I tend to believe those were added at a later date because they looked mint/new or nos. The owner had a display of articles from the car's history and he claims he just brought the car back from the garage. Its been in for 20+ years. Post the pictures you've got. I might have a contact to the owner.

-Dan
