    The DSO is Memphis, but it came from Arkansas..I'm going to order a Marti Report tonight.

    Ha!! That's my daughter, she's very drawn to this car for some reason, she bee outside since I brought it home.

    I was going to, but the trim is missing, if I can find another set, I'll do it for sure, I love the halos tops.

    Yeah, I was thinking....'Hello Kitty!!!!.....Dave has interesting tastes in pajama bottoms'.
    I think he needs evidence to support that not being his foot!

    :hmmm:

    Nice looking car by the way.

    Very nice project. Everything there to put it together with many extra parts. You should restore this one to where its to nice to drive and make a daily beater out of a sprint :D
