My '69 2000 in Automobile Magazine

Post by bakerjf »

There is a nice article in Automobile Magazine's "Collectible Classic" space featuring our cars. I was honored to have my car selected by them to be photographed. It is in the February edition on sale now. It will appear on their webpage soon I'm told. I'm including some of the pictures they took as they turned out really well.

And yes, that's John Morton driving.

Outstanding. So much nicer than a swapped engine car IMO.

Looks like its worth a fortune.

Just lovely.
