I have only had the car since October of '07.  My father owned it since 1985 and when he passed away last September, I got it and started restoring it.  Since I trailed the car home last Oct, I have totally replaced the interior.  On the trip down from Oregon, I did not know the t-tops leaked and it rained all the way to Sacramento.  The motor was replaced with a 330 hp Vortec crate motor in the late 90s.  The brakes were the next project and included bear vented and slotted rotors along with ceramic pads.  The front end needed a little work so I went with QA1 double adjustable shocks.  Paint was also done in the 90s in root beer brown with ground mirror in the clear coat.
