Hi, from New Zealand

Hi
First post. I live in New Zealand and own a restored 1970 Calypso Coral Boss 429 KK2457.

Cheers

Welcome!
Be sure to post pix for all to see.
Did you buy it restored, or do it yourself?
Where did you find it?

Mike

Re: Hi, from New Zealand

Hi Mike

I have owned the car for 3.5 years. I spent the first 2 years restoring it to concours. This car was imported to NZ about 12 years ago. It was the only Boss 429 with the Salt Lake City DSO. It had been sitting since 1974!

Beautiful car and in one of the best colours.

Regards
Gary McNeill

Re: Hi, from New Zealand

YouTube video attached

Please note: This video needed up just being "a bit of fun". When I said I was going to send it to a couple of friends, she said NO F#%&%N WAY! So I put in on YouTube instead

Once again, its just a bit of fun....a few errors, but she did well


Cheers

Beautiful Car, love the color, Ford should bring back that color for the Mustang, as well as Graber Green.
