The story:
It's spent the last couple of weeks in my garage, displacing the '65 LeMans, undergoing some rust repair and a tune-up. Soon it will be on the road and the LeMans will be back in. Update: It's now on the road as my daily driver. I put at least 30 trouble-free miles a day on it. In fact, I just got back from driving it to Carlisle, PA for the Spring Carshow and Swapmeet. Got over 25 mpg, but I wish that I'd put in the new radio. The original AM worked fine, but my station choices were limited. Update: My daughter is using this as her driver. She drives it a few times a week now, but if she gets a job, it'll be on the road more often. The new plan is to pull the engine out of this one and put in her '64 convertible rather than go through the expense of rebuilding that engine (which is now in pieces). She and I are going to get everything else done on that car before we put the engine in. |
