Love the 65-69 coupes. Probably the nicest car design ever.

Always liked the LM and honestly wasn't looking for one but it was cheap and (somehow) drove great. Not the best road trip car but it'll be fun Sunday driver and cruise in car.

Thanks for the replys!

Turned out great. That was pretty quick turn around at the paint shop. How did you manage that?
