We meet I a local cruise in and it was love ever since. I have always been a fan of the 64-65s and my wife grew up with a 64 in the family. I heard rumors of a guy with with a 64 somewhere hiding in my hometown. Every one knew a guy who friend had it. I spent 3 weeks following blind Leeds and gave up. Finally I mentioned it my father about it and he knew the guy and took me right him. :hurray:. We worked out a deal and I brought the new baby home.
