    73'Resto- Finally Some Pictures

    OK, so looks like I'm down to getting the MFI sorted, but I know its been a while that you all have been helping me along with this project. It's time to post some pics (for you Sean and Jared). Scargo70 has driven it, so I'll let him comment on how it runs/rides (be gentle Dwight!).

    I'll be visiting Gus at Pacific this week for another 'opinion' on the MFI, but I finally feel the rest of the car is pretty sorted.

    Hope it stacks up guys! Forgive the speakers in the front door pockets as they were already in there.

    Interior - note the Porsche kid seat on factory Sport Seats, for those of you who remember my 4 year old from some other shots earlier. He's my copilot.

    Nothing visible & flashy, but 2.2S pistons and Elgin ModS cam hiding inside. Pulls like an E with S top end.

    Early Deep Sixes (not sure if you can tell from this angle) w/205s front and rear (probably go 195s on the front next time) wrapped over Zimmerman cross drilled disks and all rebuilt S Calipers.

    Note: crucial decal in the window (worth $$$$$$$$!)

    Thanks guys

    Looks beautiful!

    Silver/black is as classic a combination as you'll ever find, and that silver Prototipo (assuming that's what it is) looks great in it!

    Thanks Jack! Yes, silver spoke Prototipo. Looks perfect on the car.
