Updated Pics of the Goat

I realize most of you knew this car when it was red, and most of my previous time in WA was spent with the car in paint purgatory over two deployments. Thought I'd post up a few pics of the current color. This is with the old interior.

Looks great Doug, I really like the color. Wondering if you've still got the 69 carb for my Judge on the engine? I've got a 70 RA/III,RA/IV carb if you're still interested in trading. I'd of course give it a new rebuild before you get it. Let me know what you think, and again, the car looks great.

Yep Stefan, I do still have it, and you're welcome to it. One thing I would mention is that when I gave Cliff Ruggles the number on it, he said that was a common service replacement carb or something like that, even though it's the '69 RAIV Auto (I don't remember the number right now and I'm a little far away from the garage. You need one for an auto application, right?) number. As long as it'll suit what you need, it's yours.

I'll probably need it through the summer season if you can wait...looking at pulling the engine this fall and sending it up to SD for some work, and I was probably going to hit up Cliff for a custom tuned Q-Jet at that point anyway, so I'm completely fine with trading.

I should be back in the States around Memorial Day, and I need to get the car out for some longer drives in prep for the trip down to PDX.

Hey, no hurry. Let's see about getting together when you're around, I can come up your way and we can cruise the drop tops on a nice day.

Doug - thanks for checking in. Glad to hear from you. Car looks sweet. You mentioned the "old interior"..... is the new interior the same sadle color or did you switch?

[Doug70455conv]

It's still Saddle. Although it probably would have been easier to switch it to black, the top is Saddle and so I thought a more interesting color would be nicer.

Turns out I should have bought stock in SEM for the number of cans of vinyl dye and plastic paint I used on the dashcap and hardparts. We'll see how it holds up, otherwise the dash and console will be off to Just Dashes, and there will be new saddle bucket seat backs and aprons.
