'68 Ford LTD and $4900 for a '70 914-6? Sounds like the right decision to me too.

Nice!

No and No…
Haven’t really touched it in years.. I’d really rather not put the original engine back in it if I can help it.. I’d rather throw in an engine I wouldn’t mind blowing up as much as the original.. |

Your trade reminds me of the joke, “I got this Porsche for my husband. Best trade I ever made.”
