Now he has three!!!

I guess the real question is... If you could only own one, what would it be!!??


Tony,
If I had to choose between the three convertibles, you know I would take the pacer. But if the black coupe was added to the equation, long held cars are like long held friends, and I would keep the black coupe..

Pat,
Sadly, no. Thought I would get the interior all done over the winter, but when I ran into problems finding suitable seat covers and door panels, I put the black interior back in the car. I have been picking up a few interior pieces here and there.
My thoughts were to do the interior in the correct colors, paint the nose stripe white, and drive it a another summer in it's blue war coat. Decided that when I saw this photo.

Steve,

I have this magazine and absolutely love this color combo. The Blue on Blue has always done it for me. The Girls Cover car is just down right SEXY!!! Hell I want to date her just for her car.
If I can't get a Pace Car for what I can afford, then this is what I want to purchase, but it must have Air. I would definitely do the Blue on Blue with white nose stripe until you’re ready to make the switch back to white!

Hey Weave
You have definitly got the 1st gen fever
You need to take a shot of RS-SS W/ a 4 speed cap as a chaser! Caution must be taken as you can find yourself in a state of ephoria. Which can ony be cured temporily with a cruise racer

Just how fast has this past year went? It was a year ago to this minute when I was pulling into Bob's place in Wisconsin and buying the BluePacer. Seems like the hunt and purchase is always one of the best parts of a special car's ownership.

Haven't done much to alter the cosmetics, but have made it a bit more driveable after 20+ years of not being driven, after a body/frame seperstion and restoration.

Spin A whole year, just unbelieveable. Spin

It's Labor Day, and I didn't get anything done to the pacer all summer. Did drive it a little, and took this photo today. Kind of hard to take a can of stripper to something that looks this good. Might have to run a key down both sides to get the restoration started. Eeker

This car was at Carlisle about 100 feet from our tent. A cosmetic clone, though it had big block flags. Made me feel like I was at home.

All these pictures of so many 67's starting to come together makes me want to redo this car. Might just get started and do the interior in the correct colors, I really like the history and story that goes with this car, and why it is blue.

The wife reminded me that we went to Wisconsin exactly 3 years ago to buy this car, because it was her birthday when I took her away for the weekend to go to Wisconsin, and I drug a trailer along and bought this car.. LOL

Great looking '67! First time I've looked at this thread. Beautiful shot in the location we spoke about before.

So, she had a birthday, and you got the gift. Just happen to be pulling a trailer along for the ride to Wisconsin. roll
