Same here.
And in addition, Michael is super-fantastic to deal with.

I picked up these American Racing wheels today and threw them on. I like them but I need to figure out the model so I can get center caps. And the 225 tires are too stuffed.

I found a nice surprise in the trunk. Getting the brakes right may not be as expensive as expected.

Ha! Nice things to find in the trunk! I bet there are stories out there about "the best thing you ever found in the trunk of your Roadster." This looks like a pretty good start!
Plus the grille, while somewhat rusty, looks to be in very good condition.

I didn't see a ding on it, pretty excited for that. I wonder how much rechroming will be, or maybe I should just paint it. I might paint the headlight bezels too, rusty and the passenger side has a ding that I'd have to massage out.Gregs672000 wrote: Sun Dec 20, 2020 9:58 pm Ha! Nice things to find in the trunk!

Those may be original tires. Very cool.

Please take the money you are going to save on the brakes and get the trim re-chromed. You won’t be sorry!
