Nice car. To be on the safe side, I think you should need to do daily safety checks for about a month before she goes solo with the new ride.  ;) :grinno:

Roger on that one  :2thumbs:

Thanks for all the compliments. She is very happy and has been starting her list. The car came w/ 2 fender tags and was originally painted deep sherwood green, white vinyl top and white stripes, originally auto on the column now console with ac. No ac components in the engine bay but everything is still behind the dash. Dash has a cover so sure the original dash is all cracked up. A lot of butt ends on the wiring in the engine so that needs to be addressed.

Great car!  Because you love your wife, be sure the brakes and steering is up to snuff.  Tires look good.

Thanks, will do. Going over the car the next 2 weeks. Need to fix some wiring, generalk engine stuff, etc. Unfortunately the front tires are 10 years old. I don't like that so I will be replacing them.

Right, besides safety items, don't want your wife stranded on the side of the road by stupid stuff, like old belts, hoses, wiring (make headlights bright w/relays), cooling issues, etc.
