The story
I created an album, but the pics haven't populated for some reason.
Purchased end of 2018. Been sitting form15 years. Very complete. But needs everything.
The plan (today) is to get it starting, stopping and dependable with left over parts I have laying around. Remove the original parts and restore them over the next year. Then take the car apart summer 2020 for a proper restoration. — dannny haynnes
