    Yes, I am rather fond of it too!! I originally wanted a Burgundy like they had on some cars in 71' but they couldn't find a burgundy in the color list so I got the green...:) That's what I meant by one owner, I bought it new..$2600.00 or so...Original paint [haven't waxed it in over thirty years!], interior, etc..Factory HD springs, shocks, sway bar..I put a 9" from 59' Ford [sw] in and a top loader 4spd back when the car only had 2k miles, used original driveshaft and didn't even have to alter the stock floor shift hole..Few years ago I put SSBC Disc Brakes [4 piston calipers] in..Expensive but no power assist needed..Lots of cam, ton of head porting, big exhaust [re: damn loud, at least in the car] and happy little car..I have this E90 blower from a v6 super coupe...:idea:

    I was wondering how you got such a low mileage car. Now that I see you are the original owner, that makes a lot more sense. Very cool! (y)

    I am in Berlin all the time. Morande Ford is a customer of mine. Plus the company I work for has locations in Hartford and Kensington. I will have to get in touch with you next week some time. I would love to check out your car in person.
