Notes:
This car has been in the family since 1973. Originally Ember Red with white, my parents changed everything to
turquoise/white. The car was in parades and weddings when I was young. In the past 15 years the car was neglected,
rusted, engine seized, brakes seized, exhaust rotted off and two raccoons gutted the interior. The car was destined to
be scrapped but I took it upon myself to resurrect the car. It still has the original drivetrain but freshened up a
little. The car is now lowered and is a metallic red/burgundy colour. Hopefully I'll have it back on the road next
summer.
