Well, I picked up the new whip. It's a fricken blast to drive (even more fun at lights!).

Here are some old pics the owner took. They dont do it justice, it looks great in the sun.

Just gong to drive it this summer and then repaint it and ditch the cowl hood once I put on the side draft carbs (it needs the cowl now.)

I did drive it to work today, its a blast. Way more fun than any of my other cars.

I understand the comments though, I wouldnt fit in with the beyond crowd either,it's not rice.

And yes I will bring it to the Volvo meets, probly not the cruise though, even though the airbags make it a dream on the highway!

There is some room in the bed but not much. I would take a suit case but thats it. It's a cruiser, not a hauler.

I may have to make it to the next Boston Pizza meet so you guys can pick it apart :P

can you fit a deep freeze in the back that would be exchanged for a 740 exhaust?

Umm, no sorry.

I was gonna call you about that but I have been kinda busy.

Looks like I might keep it. I have enough room at my friends place and he doesnt have one.

Sorry Athal, ohh and I dont need the exhaust anymore, the ex is selling the car with the 3" on it :P
