New from Florida
« on: April 27, 2009 - 02:39:37 PM »
Hi everyone. Like most before they joined and posted I have been reading lots of posts, and have been looking for a 70 or 71 Cuda or Gran Coupe. I want a high optioned car in one of the high impact colors orange, sassy or maybe the b5 blue. I have looked at a few but only driven one, and wow...they drive very differently from modern cars. Hope to find one soon, but the one I drove the other day was pretty much just what I'm looking for...a driver Vitamin C GC with a/c and auto. Of course it also has a built 4bbl 383 non matching. The original engine and tranny are available but "shot". I have lots of questions about the car and I will be posting in other areas. If this car doesnt come through...oh well. I've been looking for a couple years, and the right deal will come along.
Thanks in advance.
