Ready for some head-turning fun this Spring?
This beautiful automobile is a fine example of what a detail-oriented engineering perfectionist can accomplish.
While always gorgeous to look at, in 1996 I began restoring almost every part back to new-condition original.
Hundreds of before and after photographs and receipts document this complete body-off frame restoration and mechanical, electrical, interior, and convertible top rebuild.
Now finished, I believe this vehicle drives better than it did when it first drove off the dealer's lot new in 1974.
This car is a numbers-matching "survivor" in that it's mostly all stock. Some modifications were made during the restoration to improve the suspension handling, engine performance, and appearance. These are all well documented, too.
