| Story:
Brad’s Bolero Red/Red interior 1967 RS/SS convertible was the car he
dreamed of owning in high school but could never afford.
After school, a stint in the Army, marriage, and children, his
chance finally came. Brad had
looked for 10 years to find the car he wanted that was priced affordably.
He found his dream in 1996 in Tulsa.
When Brad bought the car, the only work that had been done on it
was the paint and some of the interior.
He has brought everything else back to new over the last few years
and is still in the process of bringing the car up to fully restored
status. His plans call for
changing the rear to a correct 12 bolt posi with 3:73 gears and a M-20
four speed. Brad says
although much has already been done, there is still much left to do. |
