Very nice car. I've never been a huge fan of vinyl tops, but yours looks pretty good with that color combination.

Very nice! Clean lines, and a great paint job. Keep the vinyl top. Blends in nicely.

thank you for all the wonderful comments! the vinyl top was a huge decision. I decided to keep it since the car was all original inside, andthat is the original top, and it was in such good condition. It was 13 months in the making, and the starting point was in very good condition. Very little body work needed, and it has all the original body parts except a new grill, spoilers, and the cowl hood. Kept the engine stock, as it was numbers matching with factory air, power breaks, power steering, and power windows. It is an automatic on the column with buckets (only think I am not happy with)
