    I'm quoting myself to update the comment, to say that I don't think that the price is too high, just that I'm going to have to have a lot of money. Overriding the wife means that I'll be looking for another place to live. It'll be worth it! :lol: GLWS, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed in the meantime.

    Beautifu car bos...So I'm reading this as asking $49k ona 20yr+ old resto? Or is it a typo, and the full frame off was done in 2020? Shes a stunner regardless.

    This was the car in 2002 with 62,500 miles ,I got it last year with 63,000 miles on it put 1,000+ miles on it and over the winter put a complete new interior, cleaned the bottom and added a few extras ,including tach wheels&tires,wheelwell moldings, radio,windows and more. So once the car was done in 02 it just was stored in one collection to another. Jim

    Agree on the top. I'd love to own a '65 or '66 someday but like you, don't know anything about them & if I had the $ would be worth paying for the right car. The buildsheet is awesome as are the colors (had a black truck once - Never again for a daily driver) and options.

    If you have a cool car (which you do) and you don't drive it, it's like having a hot girlfriend and saving her for the next guy. Drive it!

    PS - If I were in the market right now, I would buy it and drive the wheels off of it.
