The last of the ponies has come home to our stable.
The KWEEN has been at grandma's for years. Mike Jr. sold his 85 LX, so now there's room for her.
What do you think, is she worth keepiing? We have the numbers matching engine and tranny too.
I think she will be beautiful - ya gotta have vision!
Maybe now that we'll be looking at her everyday, something will get done!

If anybody can do it, Mike can. He's very talented from what I saw in Reno.

Are you starting on this next?

Resurection

Non-GT K cars are quite rare, are they not? Being a vert on top of it, that may be one of only a handful of cars, no telling how many still exist. If you've got matching/correct powertrain, you've got a show stopper there

Joyce,KWEEN is a keeper.Trust me I have vision,just look at my car.
That will be one awsome ride when it's done.How much did he get for the 85LX?,seemed like a good buy for some one.

Thanks Steve and everyone else who responded.
No doubt about it, we're keeping her.
We've done so much traveling this year, none of the projects have been worked on.
I think the Kween is down the road a ways though. I want some work done on Poppy first and then the Mach.
The Mach will be nice, but not really a ground up job. KWEEN is rotisserie and concourse bound.
We will not make it a GT. She will be as father Ford created her which is plainly beautiful.
KAOS has the flash and all the goodies.
We also have the 65 K-coupe which Mike wants to make his race car.
Too much to do!!!!!

We are conniving a way to get a lift soon.
Maybe we'll stay home more in 2003 and get some work done on those stangs.

You do have a diamond in the rough. You are starting out with a nice car to begin with, an A code GT.

Oh yeah, she's a keeper. Rare car and worth big $$$ with a nice restoration - what was the original color combo on it?
