    Hey Phil, your car is so beautiful. How long have you been working on it? Is that the same car you have pictured in your avatar pic?

    Keep up the great work! :TU:

    71BUICKSKYLARK, The black car came from your neck of the woods. I bought it in Fontana in 98. As for the pic of the car in my aviatar, It is a 70 gs 455 4spd I recently purchased. I hope one day it is as clean as the black car....

    Jeff, Now you tell me. Where were you when I needed the help...... :laugh:

    At the risk of being a thread stealer, Bo, do you have any updates for us on your car? Oh, yeah, that black car is beautiful and menacing at the same time.
