I'd like to announce the sale of my 71 2800cs to someone in this forum, @offpage . Thanks for a great transaction! And the purchase (on BAT) of another 71 2800cs from someone in this forum @DougE another great transaction, Thanks! And you've seen my big thanks to @sfdon for his help throughout both processes.

Hi Steve, the car looks great wheels really do make the man. I think a set of Eibach springs that lower the car an inch would really look great
