1967 383 Formula-s

10/31/2013 My new Halloween present to myself. Been watching this car for several years. I purchased it from the original owner who wanted to get the car going, but health problems prohibited him from being able to work on the car. He has seen some of my work and liked what he saw. So he finally decided to sell it to me. I assured him I would finish and keep it. It has been sitting in his garage for over 25 years.
I got it home put a battery in her, poured some gas in the carb and she fired right up! gas tank is full of contaminated gas as expected. So a new tank and sender should be here early next week.

I cannot get over how cherry the grilles, bezels and truck trim is not even a ding! No visible rust either over or under.
