I'm also one of the old geezers at 53. I bought my 68(#715)in 71. It was my daily driver until the late 70's at which point it had about 180K miles with only a valve job done to the engine. Drove it all over the Southwest including into Mexico. Sat for most of the next 18 years, moving with us to several homes in Phoenix. Got her on the road again around 97 for about a year, but what turned out to be a broken spring on the pressure plate sidlined it for the next 5. About 18 months ago I dicovered I was not alone. This and other support sites(not to mention a probable midlife crisis) inspired me to do it right this time. Trying to be patient and stretch out the fun, but it's hard. Have done most of the basic improvements(elect fan, 2bbl carb, ignition and elect fuel pump) mentioned on this site. Had a machinist friend cut Alum. wheels and just got the seats back a couple of days ago. It runs great with about 195K on the engine. The body next.
