Definitely not Salina, although I have been there.. Currently in Franklin, TN.

There better be a Roadster at the end of this story, cause this is the "Roadster Only" driving thread......but I am letting you slide ( or drift :lol: ).

I took my new (to me) 1970 1600 all around town. I put 100 miles on it since it arrived on Friday. Big thank you to @jheck I love this car! So does my 13 year old daughter, who just may get this car one day.
Awesome! So glad you love it and it's getting driven.

Now, let's see some pictures!

Dang you should have given a heads up! I'd have gladly come and met you, I have a home about 3 minutes from his shop and I was in town. Cole is close by too, did you catch up with him?
Did you get these from Rock Vest himself or otherwise?
