Of course it's a nice ride! BUT, the restoration appears, to me, to have been done with WAY to many 'off the shelf' modern parts readily available from any number of sources (including Walmart). Under the hood it shows, tires are another example. Perhaps the air cleaner is 'correct' but it to looks a little to 'modern' if you would. Alternator is yet another example. I suspect a closer look at the car overall would reveal a classic case of 'over restored'. Nothing special here...

TONY, good post! Thanks for putting it up, it's nice to be able to track the originals, good, bad and ugly.
