Amazing car though, it's wonderful that your father was able to leave you something that he would of had such a personal attachement to.

It took dad 48 years to own one.
It was his dream car, He owned thousands of cars before hand, But this was the one car he dreamed of.

Thanks for your kind words.

Sorry to hear about your old man, That is a very very clean and mint car :) I'm sure he'd be proud to see you driving it and maintaning it

Thanks for the kind words man.
