    Amazing picture. For me, 71 models are the most striking as they have a muscular yet elegant appearance.

    have you ever thought about polyglas tires?

    Many times. I just remember the last time I added Polyglas and I didn't like the ride. But the look is priceless.

    I finally figured out how to get the best resolution when uploading videos to YouTube. I had been downloading the videos to my computer and then uploading to YouTube. That process degraded the videos. Instead, I used the YouTube app on my phone to upload directly and choosing the highest quality option. The videos in this thread have now been replaced with much better resolution videos.

    Beautiful Spring day so I got the car out for a short cruise. Replacing the downshift solenoid increased the fun factor and the car is running as smooth as ever. Driving and holding the phone to record video doesn't mesh too well, especially on curvy roads. I've really got to find something to hold the iPhone when recording but I don't want to mount anything sticky on the dash. If anyone has any suggestions, post 'em up.

    Hey, Brian, my Fitech came with a holder that suction cups to your windshield to hold the handheld controller. You can move it any way you want and then it'll lock in place. Here's a pic of the whole set-up, you can see the suction cup and clamp. I use mine to hold my phone during autocross events. Fitech will sell just about everything individually to you even if they don't have it listed, just give them a call if you think it'll work.

    I could tell a lot about that car,i bought it from the original owner. I did a lot of what's done to it since found 100% original.

    I sure appreciate what you did in keeping it original. I was lucky to get it and enjoy it every chance I get. Quite a bit of paperwork came with the car but not the build sheet.

    Just a random shot after a morning cruise to highlight how the color reacts to different lighting.
