I just can't help myself, I have to tell someone!
In September, 1979 I bought FDU 88028L as a restoration project.
Pretty sad looking, but I figured I could have it whipped into shape
in a year or so.
Nearly 20 years later, all that's left to do is finish the trunk,
install the front valance, a bit of carpet gluing, and back to the
painter for final detailing, and it's done!
Last night, April 20th, 1998 at 10 p.m. I drove it around the block as
a nearly complete car for the first time. And around, and around, and
around.
Sweet.
Tom
