    guy brought this 440 GTX down to the shop to get an exhaust put on it..My dad was talking to him before he got started on the new system and man is he one lucky guy!!! He said just a little while back his mom called him from missouri and asked him if he wanted his dads car out of the barn..well he got it and wow! all original EVERYTHING! the interior is MINT! it looks like nobody even ever sat in the car!!! :eek: I woulda taken a pic of the inside but my dad needed to get to work on it...

    here it is, original paint and all :burnout:
