After a lot of searching I finally bought a 1971 red sub. I found one from Andrew Shear. He was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions and patient with me through the whole process.

The condition looks fantastic! I've been following up on his website, but now thinking I should just call instead.

I was watching his website for a while and then I decided to call him. He said he hasn't been updating his website lately and had a lot in stock. Give him a call. Thanks

Congrats! Beautiful Red. Like others have said, those sharp fat lugs look nice!
