How's this even possible...?!? A 'Cuda ya... now that parts are a catalog away but this is an achievement...!

Thanks for all of the nice compliments everyone. I'm glad I chose to freshen up one of these beautiful cars that are overlooked by most. Glad to be part of this community.

Stunning

Wow, just wow! I took some time off of the site, and look what I miss. You did an amazing job. Looks completely stock, yet has some very tastefully done engine upgrades. I'm currently restoring a '71 New Yorker myself. Much like yourself, I'm taking my time. If it turns out even close to as nice as yours, it will have been worth it!

That must be because you're also restoring a certain GY9 Polara called Sinamin, right?

No, she "only" needs a refresh in certain areas. I really do need to get around to doing that. What can I say? Life gets in the way.

That's not a restoration that's a work of art! Well done it gives the rest of us hope we can one day match your level of work.
