Its a kit car. Sitting in 4 pieces at my sons house. We bought it for his HS graduation and he drove it for 5 or 6 years. Was a small journal 327 with T-10 4 speed. Its been sitting in various stages of disrepair since. I assumed ownership in lieu of debt. I am near the point where I will have time to devote to it. I promised him that we will move it to my garage by Labor Day, we'll see.
