Thanks, I think so too. I've been enjoying top-down driving here in Utah these past couple of days, even if it is to take 'the long-way' to Home Depot or to grab lunch for us while we work on our house renovation project!
She is indeed in great shape considering her age - unfortunately for her, she was placed into storage for around 25 years due to a previous owner's divorce - the first and third owners sure seemed to put a fair amount of miles on her during the time that she was not in storage. So, at least she has been able to enjoy some good motoring for part of her life.
I'm considering myself lucky. We are definitely going to enjoy her! She'll be a lifelong project car and a driver for sure!
