History…

I bought the car July 24,2010 From Stewart Langenberg It had 16,118 miles on it and I am sure that it had turned over at least once

it now has 17,548. on it  After I drove car a couple weeks I tore it down to body only .Started work on total restoration with body work first then

 painted  whole car. Then started to put it  back together with all new parts with some exceptions that the previous owner did.The pictures speak

 for themselfs .I tried to make it as maintenance free as possible . I  added the wood dash panel to get away from plastic look and a more

 classic car look and a one of a kind car. The car is a joy to drive . everything works  my # 918-408-1375 Thanks for looking Bill
