    I remember when you had this car for sale on the forum. Did it sell and someone else restore it or is this your work? It looks great.

    Beautiful. "All Girls Garage" did a heck of a lot better job on that car than the girls (orig. owner & her girlfriend - yea) attempted on my '71 GS convertible in the late 80's. Only thing they did right was to have the bumpers re-chromed & fortunately they never got far enough to install 'em, lol. Owner died & the basket case sat in the girlfriend's garage for 25 years untouched until I got it.

    Idk, but surely not nearly as much as it cost to buy the car & have it restored.

    Redline tires were not on the option list for 1965. Just blackwalls or whitewalls.

    Car looks great! Wonder how much of a restoration it actually got. It obviously has new paint. Can't tell if the interior was redone, but IIRC is was decent when Wheelz had it. Interesting use of a wheel center in the horn cap!
    And does the engine look blue to you guys or is he pic off?

    “ restored “ on AGG is a stretch . Guess that’s what they’re hanging their hat on . Engine paint looks dreadful.

    FWIW, . . you guys are guessing. . . .AGG NEVER restored the car...and I never said they did. . .AGG was NOT that kind of show. All they did when I still owned the car was replace fuel system, new tank, fuel lines, brakes & lines, some suspension work... bearings, tie rod, center link etc and exhaust system. The fello that bought the car from me, HAD IT RESTORED... dont know by who. Original color Fire red. White interior. Documented mileage as stated on title and authenticated with original oil change receipts, battery and tires receipts from original owner. ALL documentation went with the car when I sold it.

    ...good point, however, AGG is a 30 minute show.. . .the SELLER is incorrect. I was there for the entire filming.
