Back in a ‘70 TA
After almost a decade, a 1970 TA is back in my garage. I actually tried to buy this car back in 2018 from Gary F. out in CA. The deal didn’t go through (my fault) but he wound up selling it to a dealer here in NJ. What are the chances? The dealer sold the car to another NJ resident last year, who decided he wanted to get a Bentley for his wife, so it wound up back in the dealer’s showroom on consignment. What are the chances? A car I tried to buy that was 3000 miles away winds up 45 min from me. Strange.
Anyway, car is 100% numbers matching. Gary repainted it and redid the motor back in 2009. I’ll post some more pictures. I just brought the car home today. The dealer put on larger, aftermarket honeycomb wheels with modern rubber, but I have the original JW wheels with Polyglas tires that Gary ran. He also added the ‘RAM AIR’ decals to the shaker. I plan on running the Rally II wheels (and removing the decals). Am super excited to have a mirror image of my old TA. I even still have my old TA plates and once NJ DMV opens again, plan on trying to get those reassigned to this car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
