Like phoenix rising from the ashes, Gary has resurrected this coupe from a heart wrenching accident at the Vintage in Saratoga.

Congrats Gary!!

Well deserved, despite the incorrect radio (pet peeve), Gary's car's paint is stunning. not a scratch, swirl or flaw. He was just at the Caffeine and Carburetors in New Canaan, CT.
