Hi Pworld!
Hi all,
Just got my first Pcar and thought I'd introduce her to everyone.  I've been waiting patiently..OK that's a lie..obsessively for about 12 years. 70S coupe, originally silver and I anticipate spending a lot of time with her. My wife is already calling her my mistress.  She's been ignored since 85. 95% original if you overlook the POs 73 hack job. Lucky for me he didn't prep the chrome before painting plus I have all the original parts that came with the car.. I'm going to bring back the shine! I think I'll live with the black for awhile but, will restore to silver in time. First priority is getting her back on the road. I've been watching, learning and waiting and can't wait to share this car with you guys!  Cheers, Michael 1078950910.jpg) 1078950931.jpg) 1078950959.jpg) 1078950994.jpg) 1078951023.jpg)

Hmm... looks like a diamond in the rough if it's got the original motor in it. a 70S is supposed to be a fun little car. Watch out for rust though.

You know I'm thinkin of naming her Dusty cause there was a really thick layer of dust everywhere from that storage unit.
I think it's going to take more than a dusting to get her runnin though  I'm going to be really obsessive until that first time I hear the singin!!

she was left in a storage unit since 85? You have to tell us the story of how the two of you were united.
Nice car.
