"The other Royal Plum car in the magazine article was said to be the only 67 RS/Z in that color known, Not anymore "

Actually, it wasn't the only Plum RS Z even before this car was found

My dad has a MO 302 in his 67 RS convertible on the Big Island. I do not think I ever checked to see if it was a 67 or 68. I will let you know but it may be awhile. I will have to talk him into "digging" it out.

Yes, that's correct. I am trying to buy the car I know about, so I can't share much info since the vultures will start circling RS, Black Deluxe, Tach/Guages, Fold down, PS, original drivetain...

I think the MN car is a standard grille car...

Milton's car is one of my all-time favorites!

Being in the islands too, are you thinking of the possibility of this being the original engine from the car Jeff's shown above?.


Cool find Jeff...always amazing what you dig up in the islands also what's still waiting to be discovered anywhere!.
