Wow, it's so strange to see that dashboard alongside those door panels. What a cool car. If it were me I'd have wanted to keep the original interior though.

I have to admit that that's pretty slick. I'm so used to correlating the word "custom" with "Boyd Coddington" and those "hotrod" monstrosities were just that.

He stated in the English article 185k but did not disclose the currency.

That is one sweet ride. Wonder if he was able to keep a/c in it? He should have had alot of clearance between the front of the engine and the radiator.
