thank you,
I have seen the photo's of your car ok there is some work left but also a lot of fun while doing it,are you gonne try to make it so original as possible or make it speical

Nice - I sometimes wish I'd have gone for a '76/'77 coupe instead of liftback.

What's with the steering wheel, isn't that the older years model? I must admit, I'm not all that up on foreign models, and perhaps st/gt differences here in the states.

Wow that looks brand new! Congratulations!!!

And welcome!

yes, half the fun will be restoring it to it's original glory. I'm not sure on my plans yet, but I want to try and stay original but, I also want it to reflect my personality into it as well. We shall see. But thank you. Your car will be one of my inspirations

Looks very clean, welcome aboard!

Pete

a personal touch
I have still a lot to do ,but sometimes you have a idea and you tried it out
so this came out of it:
it's the old symbol of my work (until the 70's)
it is made of a stamp
let me know wath you think




I have to say in real time it looks much better

Hey Patrick,
Nice car Looking much better than when I bought mine!!
Hope to see it for real next summer.

thanks,
lets hope that the winter is over soon
so we can drive our cars
they are not made to stand in the garage
the only thing good about the winter is that we have time to work on the car

greetz
