All that AND A/C! Very cool car! I love the styling of these. The white with blue laser stripe looks killer. How many miles on it? How does it drive?

It was full restored and was turned back to zero. It now has 7,000 miles on it, The car had 110k miles on it when it went in for a full rtesto. It drives really nice. Here is a vid of us coming home with it when I bought it recently

That’s interesting… I love the look, but have been scared away form them by everyone telling me that bias ply tires handle like garbage. I’m glad to talk to someone with first-hand experience.

so was I Kevin. I even kept the radials in case I would have hated the ride of the bias ply’s but not driving the car with the bias’s on the radials are gone. ! I was shocked how well they rode and handled. Maybe other people will have other results with different cars but I love em!
