Good Mornin to all from Lillington, NC
Hapyy Thanksgiving to all
I would have to say that this is a beautiful car.
Whike not perfect, it has...what would say, aged very
well with time. If it was on the east coast, I would
bid on it myself.
I think you should go for it and enjoy the car while
you are able too
Cheers
