Hello everyone,
Just acquired this yellow wonder. I asked for advice in the classified forums and just wanted to say thanks for the help!
I live in Oceanside, CA and looking forward to meet some of you!
PS: I know the whale tail is not ideal, working on it...

Just remove all the junk dangling on the rear and you'll be good.
Welcome to the madness. It's good.

Welcome
Eventually but for the first version of our product, our inventory will be only from professional classic car rental company. We are working on getting an insurance product to onboard personal owners.

I am getting a new lid this Friday that I will get color matched. When I asked a body shop about the taking off the tail, filling the holes (11) and repaint it, they wanted $600...
I took out the Sandy mats that were on top of the stock ones, if anyone named Sandy wants them, I m giving them away for free
