A thing of beauty!

I want a convertible and I want a classic car of some kind.. so why not have best of both worlds in one car? I'm thinking this is becoming my dream car.

Is that something hard to find?

you'd just need to finish off the trunk and do a good cleanup under the hood and she'll be ready for shows.

I wonder what the passenger side and front bumper/grill look like. Interesting that they don't show it. Tis a sweet car though.

Good point. The grass on the other side of the driveway belongs to the same property as the driveway so THAT shouldn't have been an issue.

I like it. Is that a 2V or a 4V Cleveland?

According to the sticker on the air cleaner cover, it's a 2V.
