Welcome to the show. Just passed through Cheyenne this past Wednesday (drove from PA to ID in 3.5 days in 26' U-Haul on I80). It rained like crazy there, and windy - wow. Let's see some photos of your hot rod.

Howdy from Colorady! I run through Cheyenne a few times a year.
Let's see some pictures of your gran coupe!
What color is it?
Does it retain it's broadcast sheet and fender tag?

Like I said, it’s been sitting for 30 years just un buried it in the garage, going to a shop to get put on a rotisserie and blast the bottom and assess from there! Lots to do but pretty complete car before teardown, everything pretty much bagged tagged, could of done a better job documenting 30 years ago

Sweet! That looks like it's an FE5 (Rallye Red) with an E4 (red) interior!
On a gran coupe none the less.

Looks like the top consolette card is still in the car. Finding a red dash is gonna be tough. Only two other choices.

Are you keeping this car original colors?
Hopefully that fender tag is bagged and tagged somewhere.

I'm curious if the gran coupe door panels on your car that are E4 Red have the wood grain inserts or if they had the red inserts.

Yep lots of research ahead since took apart years ago, but shouldn’t be bad, missing a few things, it was red, white top, white interior, gran coupe, wood grain door panels, overhead consul, low fuel, door ajar I think, been awhile , lots of extra trim on exterior, let me dig and find pic when I bought it
