Hi folks
Almost feels like when i announced my first child - am pleased to say after 6months of searching i have pulled the trigger and purchased a 1975 csi fjord blue from Dan K (coupeguy). By sheer luck i contacted him asking if he knew of any cars available and just so happens he was about to see one that afternoon. Photos from PO look good and Dan has taken a look himself and says there is very little rust. Car is currently on a transport from Colorado to Vancouver and should be here in the next few days. Will need immediate mods to have rear seat belts installed, was hoping to have 3 pt belts so kids can enjoy too, but cant seem to find out how to strengthen rear parcel shelf.
Anyway here are some initial pics. Will upload some more when car gets here.

I would like to thank some of the folks who have provided great help and advice privately. As i was telling Dan, there are a few characters on this forum which in my view makes it unique and interesting watching the banter, but does not take away from the immense knowledge and expertise out there.
Cheers
Ivor
