looks like the time you spent on bringing yr '74 back to life has been rewarding. i'm 2 years into the '65, it's been drivable (got a ticket already), but i've yet to come up with the final formula. i'd like to autocross it (need bigger wheels), maybe show it. have beefed up the drivetrain, installed headers and am ready to pull the engine to clean up that area and maybe add some HP. before the current look it was glen green tho i'm thinking of some other colors for repaint.
i had a '72 BB that was probably my most fun car to drive, 3.08 rear & M20 made it great on the road or around town. eng had so much potential, tho i didn't have the scratch to mess with it at the time. a little front heavy for autocrossing and if the track was fast it would swap ends under heavy braking. never got around to repainting it, sold for $8k in 1990 when california would no longer let it pass smog without some major investment in missing hardware. i know you'll be enjoying your roadster soon!
