    My '79 LTD-S Tudor

    Wow, your car is nice. I think yours ranks right up there with some of the best coupes I've seen. Can you post interior pics? Overall, I give your car !

        Thanks alot. I'm a little frustrated with the interior right now, as it is in very poor shape. I will post some before and after pics soon. I am working on cleaning it up and replacing/reconditioning the majority of it right now. Which reminds me, if anyone has green 2-door interior they'd like to part ways with, you know who to contact

          Very nice. That little piece of trim between the door and rear side windows still bug me. I wish Armo threw those to the wind as well, but the car is HOT. I love your plate too!

                    Thats Armo's old car.

                    Sweet rig, but you need wider tires and meats out back!

                    Aren't you building a pretty serious engine for this car?

                            Very nice car man. That reminds me of the type car when you drive it eveyone is looking at it through there window.

                              Yes, the slick top came off before Armo had it painted. I was surprised at the quality of the single stage. I conservatively wet-sanded and buffed it out about a month ago and I couldn't believe how much better it looked.

                              Yes, I have plans to make this into a go fast car. I have a SEFI engine built and a hopefully indestructable 8.8 close to being done. I have recently shoved enough money away to buy a TCI C4, so it may be together by the end of fall (just in time to put the damn thing away for winter).

                              Wish me luck, I will update as promptly as my progress allows.
