I am just north of Emporia. I have a few pictures of it this morning with snow on it. Tonight she is safe in the garage and ready for the small details. Like everything except for drivetrain.

Re: Brought it home....

Here's a quick one in the sunlight. I will have to get the rims and tires on there then it will look a lot better. I would like to get a set of steel wheels for it and paint them the same color. I think that would look awesome.

Re: Brought it home....

I am not from around here. I grew up in Colorado. My parents were from Illinois then L.A. then Colorado. My wife is from this area. Her parents were from Osage. I just prefer to live out here.
