Fresh out of the paint booth today. Color is hard to photograph, most of the pictures look more blue and darker than in real life. This is the best representation.

Awesome! Looking forward to see this car come together! A handful of kids had these when I was in high school and they were about the sportiest car in the parking lot -- and firmly out of reach for most of us.

Tom - that was me. Until a 405 on ramp guard rail had other plans.

In high school in 1973-4 I drove a '63½ big block Ford Galaxie 500XL 2-door fastback. One of my classmate's dad was a dentist, and he drove a new brown Capri V6. As you said, pretty much as cool as it got for high school.
