Thanks, Rick.

That car was SO immaculate, it's really a shame that I "bastardized" it by pulling out the A/C, installing a fuel cell, trunk mounting the battery, etc. If I only knew then what I know now . . .

I spent countless hours each fall cleaning it up and polishing everything for the Autorama each year. Dozens of hours flat on my back scrubbing the floor pans, drivetrain and wheel wells. You could literally see your reflection in the orange primer coat!

And the paint - except for the drag strip induced chips behind the rear tires, it was darned near flawless. Spent a fortune on Meguiars products every year, LOL!
