aint_no_chicken is on a distinguished road
dont quit!

Agreed, it takes time. Mine isnt as pristine as gemman's bird, but its still the princess of the bunch. Mine is a 68, pretty soild, needs work, but its a runner. It was stored for over 20 years, the gentleman was planning on restoring it, kept moving it from place to place till he finally gave up. I found it on C-list, and blew up his phone for a month till he picked up, and finally he said it was sold, so I gave up. A week later he calls me back, and the car hadnt sold, he just said it to get rid of me ( didnt relize it was me the whole time :). anyways I got at 4 am to look at the car the next day, before anybody else called or got it and looked at it. I fell for it soon as I pulled off the car cover, and went over it for the next 2 hours. Next daay I went down there and bought it home. I researched for hours and checked out everything I possibly could, found what worked and what it was gonna cost to fix. not everything works, but its still nice. Its a work in progress, when time and money allow. I've only but 29 miles on it since I got it, but it never fails to put me in a good mood. Its got a little mud in it, but virtally unmolested. Black, vinyl top, brogham package (leather/vinyl seats) power windows manul locks,429, and am radio. Hope to never see it leave :)

Moral of the story: dont give up, dont quit, and dont stop!
