    Now the story can be told

    This is the 67S I just bought, and although I have been involved with the car for about 30 years, the serious negotiations have only been going on for the past 15 years. You might say I've been very patient. It has been apart for all of those 30 years except for the engine which I rebuilt for the then owner in 1983, has all of maybe 2 hours running time. It has its original un-rusted floor pan, and original jack points, but has had the usual front pan replacement by a reputable local shop, (in 1983) and they also painted the car at that time. Now if I could just retire so I could get it done quicker After Parade, (when I get my life back) Mike Kuhn has offered to help me write the whole ugly story for the Esses (if Bob and John will see fit to print it)

    Ed, wow! That looks very, very straight. Did you get a few dozen boxes of the rest of the car?

    I wonder whether that is an original 1967 color?

    Great find and can't wait to hear the whole saga.
