Looks great Lyle! It gave me some nostalgic feelings as I cut my teeth working on cars like this when I was 14-15 years old. My Grandfather owned a foreign car repair shop in the Minneapolis northern side back in the day and I worked down there occasionally. I have no fond memories of working on these as being the smallest, it was decided I would fit my arms inside the engine compartments easier and was usually voted to work on the dead ones outside parked in the lot when it was well below zero........... on the flip side I got to "test drive" a lot of very fast, very cool cars.....
Glad you saw this one through my friend congrats!
