This coupe was quite the adventure. First of all, how do you get a car from Fairbanks, AK? Well first you convince the seller to trailer it to Anchorage, then put it on a boat to Seattle, then have a friend pick it up from the dock and bring it home, then have another friend fly to Seattle and drive it home to you. Thanks friends! I brought it to Cars and Coffee on the day I picked it up from Alex's and was borderline embarassed to have it there. By the time it left, it was the subject of some of my favorite M Coupe photos of all time. The other memorable task on this one was my leather guy hand painting the ostrich print back onto the seat bottom. It still amazes me to this day.
