Backstory: this was my dad’s project car while I was still a baby and a boy. When his mother was dying of bone cancer, he would like to go to his garage and spend time working on it. It was the very first sports/muscle car I ever got to sit in, and it was an incredible machine, especially with how he was able to restore it to such a great condition. Today, it’s stuck on our lift, which lifted the car up, but can’t come down! (I’ll see if I can get a picture of it on the lift; it’s covered on there!)
