I remember when this car was posted on the internet years ago. Such a neat thing that you restored it. It really is a special car. Great job!

I would beware of the JL8 vanity plate. I have considered the same for my car in Alabama, but worry that it might attract even more potential thieves. But I guess if someone knows what JL8 is that wants to steal a car, they know how to spot one without a vanity plate, so maybe not a big deal either way. Very nice looking restoration and unique car.

When you post stuff like this I'm reminded of a Steven Wright quote: "You can't have everything, ..... where would you keep it?"


Apparently, ..... at CHARLEY'S PLACE!

Nice plate Charlie

I could think of a picture or two that would go along nicely with either of those plates. Maybe an X33 car, 72 coded with ohhhh...say white deluxe guts and a few nice options?

One option was JL-8, but when delivered. the car came without the rear discs (because the option apparently was cancelled I assume).

Anyone remember that car? If my memory is correct, it had Deluxe interior, no console, center tach and cowl hood, 4.10 rear. I believe m-22 also. Came with window sticker. Had rust around the rear window. Was 3800 bucks. I offered 3500 which was all I had on me. Guy would not even take a deposit. I left that day and drove two hours home and went back the next day with full 3800, but it was sold.
Pretty sure one of my customers just bought that car...
Great paper on the car - The ordering paper from LATE APRIL shows JL8 but scratched through. Car is 652xxx vin. L78 M22 dlx with fold down, PS, front and rear bumper guards, F41 suspension, ZL2, perf axle 3.73 -
