Thanks,

As you well know, Kiwi was with out a doubt "the best". I learned so much from him in the short amount of time we were friends. He is sorely missed.

The white top KR was sold to Minar Ford in Minneapolis and currently lives in the city of its birth.

The black top Kr was sold to Tasca Ford in Rhode Island and remains in my garage.

Hey_jude That is one beautiful ride. Love the color combination and the hub caps. Auto or 4spd? Mike G.

Thanks. My car has quite a few performance mods, but is mostly cosmetically correct/original.  Especially the interior.   (Not underhood.)

But I don't ever show the car for any sort of judging, so I just made it the way I like it.  Fun driver.  Tracks at Willow Springs occasionally.

Thanks to Coralsnake for his excellent wiring harnesses, and TLea for his specially-made side stripes.

This was my garage for a brief time.

White top date of birth 5/7/68

Black Top 5/14/68

Interesting difference in the stance height between the two... wished my garage looked that good anytime !
