Great story, and I agree with others. You have the most history with the car and are the best one to keep it. If the kids of the original owner were lowballing you with offers, I wonder how they would handle the BIG costs of a restoration?

I love your car's color combination. The white interior with the burgundy exterior looks fantastic, and I really can't remember seeing too many in that combination. Do you plan to keep it that color combination?
Thank you HawkRod for the kind words. This is the way it came from the factory and I absolutely will be keeping the same. Those white seats were a bear to keep clean back then as my daily driver but it will be much easier now.

This will be an awesome car when done - looking forward to seeing the progress!

P.S. And now that we are old (and perhaps not as dirty) the white interior will keep us cooler in the summer!
