Carl Jensen's 2002
 

A quick overview of Carl Jensen's 1972 2002 restoration....

Carl spent a couple years getting his 2002 to the state its in now, and I've put together some pictures showing some of the work. I've driven this car a handful of times and its a blast to drive, and needless to say, it turns a lot of heads!
