Just a little thought here, but how many of you still have your original bumper
jack? Both my '76 and my '73 did not have the jack present when I bought
them.
Fortunately I bought one off ebay a few years ago so it is now stowed in my '76.
Also, I don't remember if I mentioned it, but there was another '76 El Camino
Classic that I test drove before I bought my Sprint. It was almost as nice,
and
about the same price. Big points for the fact that the seller was local and
ran
a repair shop. And it had a topper, which I consider a plus. Anyway, I went
and talked to the guy again today and he's really nice. Didn't mind that I
passed on his Elky, and would be willing to rebuild the VIR for the A/C in my
Sprint if I decide to do that. I might get that done here soon. My A/C works,
but is not "ice cold" like the seller mentioned. I test-drove my '76 Sprint on
an unseasonably cool 60-degree overcast day, and it seemed to work great back
then.
That's all I got for now. Oh, and I'm getting lots of compliments on the '76
Sprint. I think the same amount of comments as if I'd bought a more
collectible
car for twice the price :)
