Never thought I would ever see a right hand drive '71, my first car was a '71 two door hard top with 400 engine and C6 trans, I beat the hell out of it and even after rear ending a car causing the radiator togo into the fan, I pulled the radiator back out used duct tape to hold in place, it still ran like a raped ape. I really miss that car, I am sure it is a Toyota today and maybe the car I am driving is it. LOL. Yours looks awesome, 5 stars your way

Hello Andrew, This is going to be an awesome ride for sure! I really like your idea to have one trunk lid with a wing and one without to switch around. Best wishes... Take care, Jeff
