Cool car man, very cool indeed.

Max did the wrap yep. His brother works for me which is how I heard the car was for sale before it was actually for sale :)
The wrap is well done but been on awhile and showing its age with bubbling and some tearing etc. It will stay for this summer while I get the mechanicals cleaned up and reliable. Next year I'm going to have the wrap pulled and have just that part painted satin black. I dig the color scheme so that won't change.
Been driving it exclusively since Friday and put a ton of mileage on it this weekend with a trip to Pembroke and back included. It works well. I replaced the rad on Friday because of a leak. The 58 year old factory temp guage says its hot as balls all the time, reading 3/4 hot and almost full pin on the highway. It runs fine, doesn't have that hot "smell" and isn't boiling over or anything so before throwing elec fans or other things at it I'm installing an actual guage to see where it's really at. I have 3" blocks and Areostar coils here for it, I have a fuel pump to replace due to an epic oil leak. That's about it.
Other then the wipers absolutely everything works right down to the original cig lighter. It's a pretty neat time capsule.
