Hello Guys, Well I just bought my first A12! It is v2 top and bottom and has a white stripe and white interior, bench seat column shift. It is a very solid car on the underside but has its share of dents on the doors and on the drivers side front quarter skin. Then the front fenders are off a donor car. I was told it had been improperly stored and got the fenders and hood damaged so that is why it had these pieces along with it. It also came with a set of rust free doors off a donor car too. It is dented up and looks rough but I would rather fix those than deal with rust and this car is SOLID! But it was missing its radiator, H wheels, the air cleaner is a reproduction, and the hood is also a reproduction. But it had an extra 6 pack air cleaner set up for a 70 and up v code non shaker car. Plus it has two air filters which actually are not in that bad of shape and I just had to buy one of those for my charger and those darn things are expensive anymore! But I have not fully dug into the car yet as I will do that tomorrow as I still have it up on the trailer. But I think I am going to be happy once I get all the parts laid out and accounted for. Too bad it is not a 4 speed but I can live with a column shift bench seat as the more I look at them the more I like them. I really like the white stripe and white interior on the car as it sets it off. But now the hunt begins for the correct parts! I want to drive this one so I won't be ultra OCD if I don't have the correct 69 H wheels and could live with 70's if anyone has a set not too expensive let me know. Now the fun begins!! http://s1327.beta.photobucket.com/user/vette1986/library/

Wow, sure is solid. What a great car. It's solid and has the important stuff; FT and BS. Nice color too. Don't let anyone rib you about the column auto - 4spd are nice, but column auto is the way to go if you wanna be fast! ...besides, that's what these cars were about. You can always replace the repops with original stuff down the road; in the meantime, I'd go "day two" with the rims and worry about the H wheel later. Dave
