I'm glad it has "the bumper". I'd like it better if they hadn't ordered it with chrome turned black. To me part of the middie look is the chrome. I like it much better than the Carrera look. That said, I'm sure it will do quite well. It's a great color, and makes me want to fix mine instead of selling it undone.

^^^ His has just as much rust as yours does.
No point in switching. Unless the COA stating Gulf Blue means something to you? Which I doubt it would.

COA? What COA? Never pulled one. We did archeology under a previous black and a white paint job. And somehow some of the carpets had never been pulled. And it's a b grade "bare metal" repaint of an s title theft recovery with a bunch of 85 Carrera stuff on it. I still don't know how you run 74 CIS on a 3.2.

Oh. I thought you had documents on your 74.
Not that it matters on cars like ours. So much undocumented history and a mish-mosh of parts. That's what makes them the perfect toys.

It sez a lot when all you need to remove chassis pans is a medium sized, flat-blade screwdriver!

It’s like the barefoot running movement, you have to train your feet for it. Most shoes have too much suppprt and make your feet weak. Take away the support, or even walk around barefoot a bunch, and your feet hurt. Skate shoes are flat and to skate trains the muscles. Those clowns calling me a mechanic know nothing about my first career as a footwear executive.
