Here are some pics of "Muskie" as my Dad called her.
These pics start when she was 6 months old and end in the early 80's before we cleaned her up and performed some overdue maintenance. She was a daily driver from new till about 1973. From 73 to 79 she was a weekend driver and was shown for the first time in 1977 at a local sports car show where she took second in novice. In 1979 she was parked outside for the first time and not driven much until 1984 when she was brought back inside to be cleaned up, some minor rust repaired, and refurbished while preserving as much original as we could. This work lead to a 2nd place at the Betsy Ross MCA National show in Concours Street Driven. Shes been handed down to me and future plans call for keeping her preserved as best as possible and driving her.
