    long story short ... my dad stored it in the back yard in 88 and its been there ever since .... 2007 came along and we decided to bring it back to life .... 2008 ... a dream has come true

    an entire year in the making .....

    we had soooooo many people willing to take it off our hands when it was stored ... 1,000- 7,000 people would put offers and my dad would say no ...its great to seee all my family looks at the car and say "THATS THE CAR THAT WAS IN THE BACK YARD" lol i love it
