    Thought i'd share, the hitchhiker was a 66 numbers matching 289 4 speed coupe... the non original parts were the drivers door panel, the air dam and the grille - that's it. Car was soooooo hot. Taco was happy to do the work!

    Haha thanks Josh, the red was incredible in person, an extremely vibrant color tone. Sadly it's my neighbors so I'll have to sneak over there to get a few more shots.

    Hey Offset it handled pretty well - about 12mpg over 300 miles with no swaying sagging or otherwise negative incidents. The rental joint told me the thing had brakes but it only had an emergency brake so I just took it easy with no real negative effects.
