Hi everyone!!

Post by spl31121707 »

Hi everyone,
I'm Mark and I've owned my 68 1600 for about a year now. I've been checking up on this board everyday but never got around to making a profile until now. The car was originally being sold as a parts cars but I saw the potential to make it a fun daily driver and bought her cash. She looked really rough on the outside but after I stripped the body down, everything was in great shape. Right now I have the stripped body on a jig and the naked frame on jack stands ready to get media blasted. Hopefully I'll have her on the road before summer for all day crusing. Thanks everyone!! Ciao!!!

You need to buy a running roadster to drive whilst you do your frame-off.
