Harry (Rufus) gave me a heads up on this thing...http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/ctd/1926534457.html went and looked and bought it. No rust, early 18V motor (HIFs, big valve head) and late sidefill O/D box....even has the correct 1000tpm speedo. All original and nothing missing. Got some extra parts with it (tinted window doors etc) and still a whole pile of stuff.....may take the rest home too. I can't help it....no GT in the garage. Teat blue/autumn leaf, rostyles.

"Couldn't help it" is exactly how I describe the purchase of my roadster. Now I need to find a GT to accidentally buy.
