#114, bought in 2001 sight unseen save for a small postage stamp size photo of a wheel in an old kit car sales magazine, long defunct. Doesn't look like this now, a member on here bought her after I sold it years later to someone who stuffed it in a garage and passed away, and the estate put it up for sale. He redid everything and resold it again!

1) Sadly, I have a WHOLE LOT of "before" photos. I'm still waiting to achieve the "after" on most of my projects.

2) Luke, it's been driving me nuts that your paint job reminds me of something. I finally figured it out! (Playful observation, not a criticism.)

That is sexy.. both before and now! And what a story! Ive heard of obsession before but you're keeping tabs on that car like its your ex wife you share a multi-million dollar life insurance policy with. Bravo, Sir. IF you are ever legal to work in Arkansas I could use a private detective... =)

;) I usually know where all my cars wind up. My last car is in Jeff Dunham's private collection, at least as of last year...

#114 You know the before, here is the after.

I sold it to a good buddy and still get to see it most weeks at our Sunday morning cars and coffee get together.

All my parts are fiberglass.

Scoops, ground effects, rear visor, rear spoiler, new lower rear end, seats, dash, side pockets, console, front hood, engine cover etc. I made mold for all so I can reproduce the parts I like for my other car builds.
 
My before... and after...
