That is one sweet car. I really like that stance. By how much is your beam narrowed?

Your car rocks bro! 8-)

Did you "age" the paint like that, it looks like the paint was good when you got it?

Neato! Another good lookin 66. I like the stance. How many notches are you down in the back?

word, on ageing the paint... NO! faking the funk is a no no. i just didnt have a garage untill recently, so the sun worked its majic. (although the pic alteration accentuated the patina) as far as how narrow 4 inches, but i think its a bit more. and the back is just about 2 clicks down. thank for the kind words everybody.

im off all week this next week, anyone in the area hit me up.... im ready for a cruise
