:hmm:

Preston,
Did you pick up that car locally? I think that is the same car I was referring to in my earlier post. After my buddy sold it in the early 90's it went to someone in either Oxford or Alexandria. I don't know where after that..

In all seriousness Preston where are you living at now? I would like to come see the car sometime. It is definitely a lot different than it originally was. I know you said that the interior color had been changed, but does it still have the original high back buckets?

I hope that red car has adjustable ride height (air bags?) because there's NO WAY you could drive on the street with it sitting that low. Looks SICK, though! :metal:
