note that the headlights are on, but not the parking lamps...i re-wired some stuff in the steering column so that only the turnsignals and flashers would operate but not be on when the headlamps were on......

that's how much i HATE orange lights lol.....now it's back to stock, but i'm considering getting clear lenses and clear bulbs like i had in 3 other cars and my ranger

I got it when i turned 16 (the summer after - had to work half the summer to pay for it) and i'm 21 now so almost 5 years...

pic was taken at Moffitt's Ford in Boone...there's a retro T-Bird in the background.

I really dig the way it looked back then...much mre 70s than it does now

So back then, someone had added a '73-'74 stripe to it? Looks surprisingly correct on it for some reason, heheh...

yeah it was repainted not long after the car was bought, in my opinion, as the paint did look pretty vintage (worn, old looking, but still in like new shape) i really liked the stripe...went up and then strobed across the topand down the sides a little bit

The stripe is to thick,should be thinner. 8)
