Current project is a '54 Resto.100% DIY--including chassis, Ls, Carbon fiber, paint and upholstery. Looking for 36 MPG, and the one finger salute to AOC. Moving a bit slower at 80!

That’s a ‘73? Is the back end of the body completely redone? Obviously a lot of work done to the rear end under the car. Sharp ride.

Thanx, Yeah it's a 73, previous Owner sometime in the 80's changed the rear clip and added an Ecklers Hood and flares
and I bought it in 1990 and did the rest.

I've posted once in this thread with a picture of my new wife and new car from about 1972. Here is a professional photo taken at my first AutoX just after I'd restored everything.

Unfortunately you are correct. This was taken at Marina Airport near Monterey before it was closed.
