Oh my gosh.. I am in Brooksville now visiting my grandparents and you passed me the other day while I was on the golf cart in the gated community..
 
Welcome to fabo!! I love that little car of yours, it's really cool!! I'd like to see some more pics of the inside and stuff, it's a car you just don't see very often!! Geof

As requested more pictures to come. Has the 225cid engine, all OEM parts except the radiator (aluminum) and has 78k original miles... Needs new motor mounts, oil pan and transmission gaskets and a little engine/engine bay paint and will be perfect. Thinking about adding power brakes and doing a disk brake conversion... any thoughts?
 
Yes, by all means upgrade those brakes, especially if you're still running the single chamber master cylinder!! If you're keeping your small bolt pattern wheels, the Kelsey Hayes setup will be your only choice! There are a number of setups for sale around fabo at any given time it seems! I have them on my 66, they're a much needed upgrade, especially if you have the small 9" drums!! I say go for it!! Geof
