I bought this car about 4-5 years ago and had it stored at John T's place. He needed the room and with the new shed, I'm SUPPOSED to have room for all my "stuff", so it came home today.
I'd love to have NOS front fenders, and they are out there, but the cost is not in the budget for a few years. The house, yard and shop will eat all the funds I can muster this summer, and maybe next.
Yes, I had a different Oshawa car that was built with more options, but without the gauge package and had a TH400. I bought everything to convert it to 4 speed, but could never bring myself to do it because of the documentation, hence it never saw any more than an engine/trans and brakes to be a yard driver. This car is close to what I would have ordered myself, minus colors, so bought this and sold the other. I like that it was ordered with the buckets but NO console.
Maybe next winter we can have 3 months of tech sessions here and replace most of the body...
