    Gee... you hear stories of finds like this in sheds.
    Congrats mate. Enjoy her.
    Cruising must be almost like sitting in a time capsule.:)

    Alright, I will upload a stockpile of pictures (36!) i took today of the interior and engine bay, and the front grille after it was cleaned up. Hope you guys enjoy!

    P.S. i will resize them all because they were taken with the DSLR and are rediculously big otherwise.

    That's a very neat HK mate, nice score.

    All it needs now is a killer small block Chev and it'd be the ultimate sleeper :) Well, that's what i'd do to it anyway :p

    Hey mate, unfourtunately it's not original paint, it actually needs a respray because of some imperfections. Would love to get it done properly when i find some funds.
