Another RS Clone project

Here's my ongoing project. She's originally a narrow '74 that I back dated the body to a '73RS clone. Many thanks to members: Shaun84Targa, scyllya6 & many others who supplied parts & info to complete the task. Still have body work to clean up this summer, then paint in the fall /winter. Cant decide on a color. Its taken me two years to get this far mainly becaue I've kept it driving the entire time. See you NY/CT/NJ guys at the next GTG. -John

2.4 with MFI. So all show, no go. I've kept a fairly accurate spreadsheet thus far on expenses. Between purchase price & expenses to change body, wheels, interior cleanup, suspension, exhaust & engine updates, I've got close to $11k into now. -John

Hey Tom. Mount bar went right in, no problems. Not sure about Danbury yet. My weekend plans evolve day2day.
I'll be sure NOT to park next to you My car only looks good from 30+feet. Up close you can see its still has a long ways to go.
