One of my Dad's friends just put his convertible up for sale. Thought I'd share the picture since it's such a beautiful car. I'm not putting it in the "For Sale" section because I'm not trying to sell it for him, just share the picture.

Anybody else in the old f**ts division frustrated by having to surf through 1000's of Acadia and GTO posts to find something related to older models in the 'Parts For Sale/ Wanted' category? How hard would it be to have a separate category for pre-1958 parts for sale or wanted?
