Default I'm back w/ a coupe i picked up Friday...

Hey guys. How's it been going? I havnt been on in a while. Since my latest car died on me(the SN) i've been trying to decide what to do. I was going to build the white car but decided to look for one already built and i found this coupe. This is the first coupe i've owned and i love it. I picked it up for an incredible price. Other than the obvious, the best thing about this car is the weight. It weighs 3180 with me and 3/4 tank of gas. Here are some pics:

Oh, and i still have the SN. I've got the engine torn down. I'm going to get it back together and either keep or sell. The SN has a 351 and c4 in it.

Thanks bud, i do too. I had been looking for quite a while and came across this one. I've never felt as good as i did about spending cash when i bought this car. I was willing to pay a lot more for a coupe as clean as this and one that is built like this.
