Not bad for paying $1700 for it in 2006. I'll bet the previous owner is kicking himself now. Here's the story of the guy who found it...

</div></div>

Dana bought it around 2006 and paid a lot more than $1700!!!! A $&amp;^# OF A LOT MORE! The guy that Dana bought it from is who I believe paid $1700 and that was 20 some years ago and ALL the money for that car at that time. Dana invested a LOT of money and research in this car in the time he has owned it.

The guy I bought it from traded a 6 cyl Mustang for it straight up in the 80's. He thought he had paid $1700. for the Mustang. Just to clarify. And yes, it was a LOT more when I bought it in 2006...
Unless I am wrong, I think all of the 68 project cars that were for sale have changed hands and are being restored.
Hey Bruce, I remember the staging lanes at Russo got a little hairy in there with the other drivers. You and Holly handled it like Pro's of course.
Everyday I look at this car I still marvel at the job Rick did. Incredible.
