The convertible top one. Cherry red with big black fender flares and humongous BFG A/T tires (best tires on the planet). Maybe I’ll do that in my early retirement. I’m goddamn sick of the wine tour biz…
You spend that much time, money, and effort on a ride, it's no wonder you get attached. I never had the skills, tools, or room to restore properly, but relatives and friends did.
My Dad found my older sister's car 1972 Nova 350 SuperSport, it was fairly beat up, but Dad got it running cherry. The exterior wasn't decked out too much, but it would haul ass. So many guys were jealous of her ride, that she got a few speeding tickets IIRC. My brother then inherited it, and got it looking sharp as hell. I was hoping to get it, but my brother got an offer and sold it.
I'd give my left nut for a restored ride like this today.
