Dudet! Saw it right after the restore in Tellico when they shut it down. Very sweet rig. Nicest I've ever seen.

Sorry to see you sell it.

Oh snaps! I'd hands down buy something like this before I bought a $16k newer car. Bump for a Ga cruiser

Do you need to "Sell" it, or are you open to trades?

I have a 71 Pig on hold until after I get married in the Spring. Would love to come by and just have a look at yours, to give me some motivation for cleaning up mine, as well as get some ideas for suspension. I really like the way this one sits.

I'm also in Atlanta, so can do it when it's convenient for you - if that's cool?

Thanks
S
