Default New anniv TA

Finally found my 30th anniversary. Plan was to build a 69 TA clone and collect all of the anniversary editions. Still need a 15th anniv but not many 3rd gens survived in decent shape....

69 clone:


79 10th anniv (TATA):


89 20th anniv (TTA):


94 25th anniv:


And finally- as of today...


Finally.. At home:


Sorry to post so many pics- very excited and drinking heavily. I wanted one of these since the day. They came out.

It's in the garage- just the old part you can't see in pic. The 69,70 and 79 were already there. Going to have to re-arrange this weekend

Thanks- I am very fortunate in the fact that my dad has collected these cars forever- he has the bug worse than I do and honestly I get most of the projects from him.

Hmmm... LS swap in a 15th anniv?

I have a friend looking for a collector edition- is that one a 6 speed?

Sweet collection. I just picked up a 30th two months ago. I love it, it's not in the same condition as yours unfortunately.
