Very nice!

Black with red interior? Awesome!

supersport#69 09-18-2022 12:39 AM
Thank you. It痴 a factory starlight black and red interior car. It痴 a numbers matching Ho, 4 speed car so I知 pretty excited about it.

Beautiful car!

Paint looks fantastic and that color combo is really cool. You putting dog dish caps on it?

Greg Reid 09-18-2022 01:16 PM
I know it sounds crazy but it really looks tough with those black steel wheels and no hubcaps.

Beautiful car, a set of restored HURST wheels would be a nice compliment as well. Nicely done.

Lookin like mine, only nicer. Is it a PON plant car? Tan interior instead of the Parchment.

I was thinking the same thing- looks tough as nails on the steel wheels. Paint looks fantastic- enjoy it!

I have a set of dog dis caps but they池e pretty rough. I知 thinking I might leave them off for now. The wheels are black and clear coated. I wish I had bought redlines though.

I知 not sure on the plant but sold new in Madera, California.

Yup. Redlines! Icing on the cake! Beautiful car!

Arlington plant. Somewhat unusual for a California car since Fremont is just a few miles away

supersport#69 09-19-2022 04:38 PM
It was actually sold new with a white vinyl top. I chose to stay with a black top.

Greg Reid 09-19-2022 05:42 PM
Wow.. that's a wild combination.. I'd love to see it, but like you, I'm not sure that I would have had the nerve to try it.

Looking beyond excellent, Tony! Great call with the black top. The white one would have looked very awkward, IMO. You sure came a LONG way on this one!!!

I had my exhaust tips done. Last week.

Tips are 2 1/4 diameter

Greg Reid 10-02-2022 01:05 PM
Looks good. The entire system 2-1/4" ?

supersport#69 10-02-2022 01:31 PM
2 1/2 from exhaust manifolds to mufflers and 2 1/4 rest of way.

dataway 10-02-2022 04:35 PM
Hope you are going to put on that wheel well trim I see over there .. would look great with that black paint.

supersport#69 10-02-2022 09:15 PM
Those are original but pretty banged up. I think I値l probably look for some nicer used or repop.
