Hello all, i've lurked for the last few months and it's time to put and show ya'll my '61 SC. I think it's a pretty fun toy.

Most items are in good shape; sporting a '63 SP1200 it's not exactly a sport car but with the diet it's been put through does well enough.

things on the todo list are go through the front beam and get a new exhaust put under it.

Current exhaust is just a collector and pretty loud!

Front beam needs tie rod ends and bushings. otherwise drives straight and does really well at speed.

Here she is .. (updated to fix the image)

Seen as you're a shorty fan, check out Jerrys shorty. He's not with us anymore, but he was a legend, and the silver bullet lives on with its rad paint job.
