rusty roof tear off

Thanks 72bluNblu.

I LOVE those 71 GTs.

I think I saw both of them on ebay a few years ago (at least the yellow one).
I almost bid on it a few times. It was the first one I had ever seen.

Thanks! :D

The butterscotch GT was indeed an eBay find, I was watching it because it was practically in my neighborhood. It was the first GT I had actually seen also. I found Bruce's 70-71 GT site (and FABO, for that matter) doing research on it. I bid in only because it was going so low, and I was shocked I actually won. Other than needing an engine rebuild, it was/is in great shape.

The brown one was never listed on eBay that I'm aware of, it was a local find from a "I buy junk cars" guy. He decided it might be worth more than scrap, so he briefly offered it for sale before he was going to scrap it. Fortunately I was able to pick it up, although, it had basically been parted before he got it. Engine, trans, 8 3/4 rear, buckets, console - all gone. The roof skin I removed is actually for the brown GT. Vinyl top was left on it by the previous owners while the car was outside, so its rusted out. Rest of the car is solid, so once I finish the rebuild on the butterscotch car it'll get a new roof and running gear.
