73 Sunset Fastback
« on: March 07, 2015, 01:30:39 AM »
Just rolled this nice original Sunset Orange Fastback out of the detail booth and thought I would share some pics..   Maybe the brightness of this color will melt some of this snow... lol

Very nice! Love it! One just sold on ebay and I should have got it. Also a 73 seat sold recently but I feel with the low Fastback values it would make more sense to find a complete original as opposed to building from parts. Actually the Krates too but am in too deep to stop on the current project.

What is the story on this one?

That's a real beauty, Mark! Looks like brand new!

Thanks for sharing; I can hear the snow melting now!   ;D

Thanks Guys.... This one was a friends who had purchased it but never had the time to dial it in...  I had an opening in the detail booth so I took it on and she turned great...
