    i thought of making it a GS clone, but since it is all original it pains me to seperate it out... so i will probably keep it original (with a possible color change). it has a/c, ps, pb, 350 (currently not running due to a broken timing chain). I will edit some more photos so they are not OMG huge when I get home tonight.

    I've always been partial to that color. Nice find. Pace yourself so you don't get disscouraged.

    My father had a '71 and I want to give this to him for his 50th birthday (05/18/2011) so I do have a time table but atleast it isn't six months.

    That's pacing yourself. Get him to help you. That way it will make it that much more fun and memorable. Besides in the end he'll just give it back to you.
