    FWIW, I had my car at Downington in 1979 as well. It was pretty ugly but it was there nonetheless.

    Thanks Eric. We put some time and work into it to get the engine and underbody done.

    It's currently at a place called "Only Yesterday" Classic Autos getting some interior work done. Steering wheel, door panels repainted, then I should be done and just enjoy it.

    Mike
