Thanks, Jimmy. I'm hoping to drive it more than just around town . I haven't seen the car in person, yet. It was loaded last night in the Houston, TX area and will be here today. I was easily convinced that I could spend a lot more on a restoration and still not have anything close to this car. I bought it from the 2nd owner, little old lady in her 90s who has owned it for 30 years.

That is Jeffrey's car in the background. Here are two links to the Emerald Bullet ---- video and "Cautionary Tale"

Thanks, Chad. The oil change sticker says 2004 (hopefully, it's not the last oil change) --- so, it's behind on some maintenance items; mechanical stuff that I can do. I don't do paint, so this one REALLY appealled to me.
