I would love to know the history of this car. Many of you have heard me talk about an exact copy of this car I went to look at when I was 16 (1977) and had just gotten my license. I believe the car was in the New Brighton area of Mpls. It was a very original low mileage car in these exact colors. The entire bottom of the car, firewall and many of the engine compartment components were covered in a layer of Cosmoline to protect them. He was asking $500 and the ONLY reason I walked away from it was because he had a coat hanger attached to the rear of the generator as he said it wobbled too much. I wanted a NO issue car for my first car so I walked away! 1st big muscle car mistake I made in my life. It was a beautiful car. Wish I had taken photos of it then.
