Thanks to Hurst for a good deal and transporting my baby here to the ranch. You're alright Jim!
Oh and thanks for helping with the Cobra wax buffing before sunset.

Yeah baby ... finally. I had the 85GT from Shaun for 3 weeks and had to sell for a home repair --- I was pissed and anxious to get another.

TZILLA, where you at in Seffner? The mother-in-law lives on Bogdonoff Drive

I'm glad your happy Greg.

I had originally picked the car up 2 years ago with the intention to make it a father son project with my step son for his first car. I've collected a boat load of parts for it. It just just a rolling shell when I got it. The body is pretty straight except for one small ding on the drivers rear fender. The body itself is almost rust free,. it has some surface rust and a bad spot on the back hatch and another where the battery tray was. But all the usual bad spots were free of rust which is why I picked the car up to begin with.

But having the car sit for so long and now with me out of work I needed to find the car a good home and someone who had the same vision that I had for the car. Luckily Greg fell in love with her and now she is in a much better home then I could provide.

Will need a lot of TLC. Most of the hard to find tedious parts have already been collected by me. Greg has a good collection of parts there as well. I am happy she went to a good home.

Dont forget to take pics of your progress Greg. And if you need any help,.. let me know.

Hurst
