So do I, great cars indeed! Bought 11 months ago at 111k miles, history known all the way back to the second owner in 25 years ago, gone through with a fine comb after acquisition with NOS parts. The odometer just passed 120k miles: She's been through 15 states and Ontario  since I bought her. Wonderful people and stuff mover!

Here is my Betsy a few days ago, getting cleaned up.



Look forward to seeing pics of your own car. Till you can post them, pray tell us more about her history?

Betsy is a beauty! I don't know too much about Bettyim thinking about doing a car fax report on her. I bought from a kid about to go in the military 🪖. He updated the radio with a Bluetooth unit and slightly cracked the dash pad. I believe he said he bought from an older gentleman. I believe because when I first test drove her I floored it and the kid said not to do that she don't like it and sure the temp gauge started to rise lol. Now 3 years later and a newer heart transplant she is a cherry .

An additional suggestion is to use your VIN for a Google/Bing search (do both, sometimes things pop up on one that do not pop up on the other). For Lalie, my 1996 FWB, I found old registration records from Ohio that gave me several more years of information that I did not previously have on my car.

Now that you have enough posts, I would love to see pics of your car!

I guess the rear quarter was replaced hence the different color.!!

Side shot of disclored quarter. Plans of a paint job this spring.

looks good, don't too many without the wood...

something has been repainted at some point and the color match isn't very good.

I plan to get the whole car repainted in the spring. I'm not a big fan of the wood actually.
