That first one's been defretted and has a nasty head repair... at least he's honest enough to show the detail...

Huh ? did you say something ? I'm a bit deaf from playing all that R&R. Seriously I will go out on a limb for this. See it is a good thing I passed on the new Tbird ;D There was a reason.

That's not gonna be a cheap one. Over 2 K already!
Wouldn't it be nice if our Czech friends could make a serie of these, one pu model? I would go for one, fast as I can.
Any ideas out there?

Getting a little steep for me(still think'n about it though), one hour left and it is at $2,050.00 . Still a good price I think might get a little nuts near the end.
