Ha ha... ;-)
better check your math John
42+18=60 not 66
60...makes you and I... twins!
Over the last 24/25 years (even with a 10 year gap in the middle)
I have owned and restored some 24 LBC's.
I'm now... (for the fun of it..and at an age where I can afford to...)
attempting to update the record...
..that is to say... one car restored...for every year in the hobby!
...back at 'em loving it even more than I did as a teenager.
