Great car! Keep working on him.

I have seen quite a few of them over the years, but haven't been able to get my hands on one myself. Came pretty close on a green one back in the 70s.

About 17 years ago, I got within a few hundred
bucks of buying a very humble 69 M Code, 4 speed coupe. It even had the manifolds, but someone had sanded it down, totally stripped it of paint, then let it set outside for a long time.
