It was definitely a nice show and Mark's car stood out!   Stay tuned for an interview filmed at the show with Mark and his car in the next month or so on "Two Guys and a Ride" Youtube channel.

The blotches are from my phone screen. The only way I can post pictures is to take a picture of the picture on my phone. The car looks awesome!

Thanks Jim, and for all of the positive comments. I’ve been having fun driving some the past couple of warm seasons. I think there’s 600 miles on it now! I know, crazy. Will be removing the engine/trans this fall to do some sorting of leaks, and to replace some trim pieces with better parts. They are never finished.

Hi Lou,

The iPhone format for images won’t allow me to post them. Since I retired, all of my software for playing with images went away. There is a thread on the restoration in Projects and Restorations, you might want to look that up. Last posted in prob 2014 or 2015.
