Lets just think about this for a minute.... He was 22 when he bought it new, drove it for 19 years and tucked it in his garage for the next 45 YEARS. This deserves a story written up in Hemmings or some sort of news paper. Just amazing.

A couple weeks ago I took Bob for his first ride in 45 years believe me this is his happy face .....( someone on tri- five board asked if I was the other teen driving)
we drove around my neighborhood..insured but no plates...I’m waiting on a NJ to send me a duplicate Title they want to take and destroy the original ...my way around is to get the duplicate and use it to transfer ownership
So far
Getting a little shine back
Replaced gas tank
Re cord radiator
Replaced water pump
Replaced rad hoses
Tires
Rubber gas line
I have all rubber brake hoses not installed yet
I will rebuild original water pump (for engine rebuild someday)
Enjoying the slow resurrection
