Back in 2001, I bought a complete, but not running ‘67 coupe with a 3 speed and 6 cylinder. My purpose was to build a restomod, and use the donor parts to rebuild a ‘66 6 cylinder coupe that I had. So anyway, 10 years later I completed both cars, but was forced to sell them in 2010.
Fast forward to 2018, and while going through pictures, I became nestalgic and regretted my decision to sell nine years earlier. I went on the hunt and was finally able to get in touch with the then 16 year old kid (now 25) that I sold the car to. To my surprise, he and his father still owned it, and it hadn’t been wrapped around a tree! In fact, they claim to have only driven the car on sunny days.
Anyway, after two months of back and forth, and another $1500 than I sold it for, I brought back home my first “build” project. It’s not a CS, nor a clone, but I’ve always wanted a Shelby or a CS, so that was the direction I went with. Anyway, my wife’s not all that excited,so I wanted to share with someone.
I don’t know how put pictures, if I can figure it out I’ll edit this.
