Yes. This is a car that I've had since 1983. Poorly restored and vin swapped at a shop in South Jersey, driven through high school, college and beyond. I was doing a lot of bike racing and the summer driving, especially after the races, was just doing me in. I bought a Jeep Cherokee (with really great a/c) and put the car in my Mom's garage. About 25 years later, I pulled it out of storage to have it redone at a "shop" in Richmond VA. That was a failure and five years later I pulled it out and it went back in storage for about 10 years.

Last year it went to Jared's house and he's been working on it as time allows. He has a real full time job but has gotten a lot done. Fixing past mistakes, fixing rust and doing all the GT mods I've asked of him. He also did my 67, which required a ton of rust repair and body panel replacement.
