Well, I rolled my Coupe last Wednesday. That sucks. Pisses me off too. I don't want to write about that.

But I'm getting another '69 to fix up and it should be done in about 6 months. I am painting it the same color, canary yellow, and the interior is going to be black also.

Question: '69 Mach 1 fastback, or stick with a '69 Coupe? What are your guys opinions? I think it would be cool to make the exact same car so people that didn't know I wrecked wouldn't even be able to tell the difference. But Mach 1's have that awesome look and are worth way more $$$ when they are fixed up.

And if any of you know where a '69 is for sale, let me know. Thanks.

By the way: I am using the same engine/rear end. I will probably end up using the same C4 too. But I am looking for a 4-spd car. I want a manual BAD.

There are pics of the old Coupe on my website in the sig. It's a pretty sweet car.
