Hi all i have previously posted a little about this car in the welcome forum so i may repeat a little about the car again for those that haven't already seen it.
After a long time looking for a 69 i found my new ride on e-bay in the usa,( i live in Australia). After not bidding initially i got in contact with the owner via e-mail to find out that the car was unsold but still available and interest was beeing shown by myself and two others. Long story short i made an offer and terms that suited us both and a deal was done. Only afterwards, did i find out that the owner was a forum sponsor here Marquez Design. Once i checked out his web site and an exchange of many e-mails and phone calls it was decided to give the car a freshen up before bringing it back to Aust.
The car didn't really lack for much as you can imagine she has all the Marquez goodies fitted already. A new interior, tmi seat covers, new paint job' engine bay smooth out, wheels, 3" borla exhaust, new cam and a whole lot more will be added.
Suppose i should mention it is a 69rs/ss 502 bb baer discs,factory cortez silver with hockey stripe,all nos sheetmetal,power top,6 speed transmission,sanderson ceramic headers and much more.
I have a ticket booked to San Francisco in May to check out progress hoping it will be pretty much finished.
A few pics of the car before the tear down.
I must say this site has been a great source of ideas and inspiration.
Cheers Mark.
