All of the interior and engine bay shots were taken after it had sat for about two years after my heart operation. The last one with peopel looking at it was in 04 I think, at a Jax meet. The first ones in each of the above two posts were taken a couple of months ago.
This one was taken at the Jan 5, 2008 Jax meet at Girvin Park:

Later,
Bill

thanks Ray!! there's something to be said about an unmolested 7. they're the ones that i quite enjoy buying. closely following are the cars that people are ready to throw away. cars like my 85 S that was destined to go to the crusher. it now sits in my garage being restored. i've put about 60 miles on it since i put the newly used engine in. now its undergoing rust repair and suspension modification.

Not a bad thread at that:





Dave do you still have that silver GSL? Now that's pretty. What color silver is that? I want to paint my current GSL that color.
