I joined a few months ago and haven't shared many pix. So I'm saying "Hi" and giving you a look at my car. I got it last fall in good condition. It's a '67 convertible, originally a 273 2bbl, but now with a 318 & Carter 4bbl. It's an automatic with a Torqueflight 904 and the 8 3/4 with sure grip.

Here's the car last fall in the driveway of the seller, before the purchase. Didn't take long to realize the mud flaps were pretty lame.

Added new rubber and switched over to cooler hubcap option with chrome lugs. Found the lugs via research here on FABO. Also added wheel well chrome.

Look closely and you'll see I'm in the process of adding the backup lights (which oddly were missing). Got the lenses on FABO.
