Matty67 Posted August 3 Posted August 3 Thanks for letting me join the group ! My first car was a 1972 MC ,Sequoia Green with green cloth interior, had the turbine hub caps - need to fine the old photos ! I loved that car and know 50 years later looking for a really really nice MC . Looking for a AC bucket seat car but not a deal breaker for the right car! I still like the 72's the best -personal preference really. Question has anyone dealt with Auto and Powersports sales out of Mississippi? Thanks again for the invite and looking forward to making some of your meets in the future! Rick 5 Quote
