The Perfect Bird??

[pattypape]

My Opinion........ Your dream is next to impossible,,,,,

But you can see your dream on the Jeff Miller web site.

click on Before and After, then the 77 FC 31, I have seen this
Bird. This is the only one and beautiful. Maybe you can track it

Very very, Doubtful. Another opinion

Then look at the 83 FC 33 it is for sale now, at $38500,
Very real price and a very real bargain. also another opinion

Bill 88 FC
