My parents bought one in late 1969, the car was a left over. I was seven or eight when they bought the car and I think that car is what go me so hook on muscle cars.
Sadly, my parents traded the car after less than a year of ownership. They said it rode too rough and bad gas mileage. They traded the car in for (ugh) a blue / white interior 1970 Oldsmobile 88 convertible.
I have always wondered what ever happened to that car. I don't know the VIN for the car and don't know the dealership they bought it from.
I have always wondered about the car (it is survive, was it scrapped; etc) but, never had much luck finding the car. I contacted the SAAC with no luck.
Last year I was diagnosed a terminal health condition. With that in mind I thought I would give it one last try to locate the car. I have no thoughts of ever owning the car, I would just like to know it's still around and, if it's still in the area, maybe I could see it again in person.

What was your dad’s name? Was the car ever in for any type of warranty work that you specifically remember?
