Wow, that's a cool car. Refreshing to see one that has the original red inner fenders and not repros. I fixed your title for you. Good luck with the sale.
Congratulations to you and the new caretaker..A ton of detailed work was put into that car..And a BONUS, comes out with more horsepower than a factory w30 via roller cam and ported heads with a decked block I assume.. NICE WORK…
