I wanted to post some pics of my car as I have used this site to answer all of my questions along the way. I bought the car from the second owner who had it since 1978 with all maintenance and repair records since 78'. It was origianlly an all original copper car and I was going to keep it original but after I started digging into it I found alot of rust etc. Needless to say I was disappointed as I paid more than I would have had I known more of what was hiding underneath. I didn't get to do everything I wanted to the car because of time constraints using my buddies garage but all the rust has been taken care of and the engine is tuned and 90% oil leak free.

I back dated the front bumper and added the 916 rear bumper(saved a ton of weight getting rid of the stock bumpers). Next on the agenda is a 5lug conversion.

I addedup all of the receipts since 1978 and the car has had over $13,000 in repairs and maint. to date.
