My 67 Fastback Build... :)
Bought the car this afternoon. Came with the original manual, and the maintainence records since 1994. Aparently the trans was rebuilt less than 2000 miles ago, brake rebuild too, carb build, coolant flush (looks cleaner than whats in the Granxe). The car is solid! One repaint of original color, mid eighties time frame.. Probably.
Checked the plugs.. awesome color! Fluids all look great, drained the oil tonight and will pick up a new drain plug tomorrow before filling up, it leaked. Sprayed some wd 40 in places and will drain the old gas tommorow, add some good stuff, and crank her up.
Also noticed a new distributor cap, pertronics, and a flamethrower.. then found the receipts.
and pics to come.. Then a video of the start and drive home.

My helper. She wanted to do something while I checked plugs and introduces a little WD 4040 to the cylinders.. She wiped the seats and found stuff. A little hammer, a peach pit.. Then she proclaimed. "Dad, this car is going to be mine."
