Vintage Pic

You say it is orig. paint. Can you get us pics of the black tail panel ? There is a long ongoing argument about if the tail panels are gloss black or satin type black. Looks glossy in the pic but info from your Dad would be a big help. Did he ever paint the tail panel ?

How did it live through those tough Minnesota winters? He must have had another car to drive in winter.

I'd be glad to take some pics of the tail panel - I'll send you a PM.

As far as the winters - yes, it only saw one winter and two summers before it was primarily a 1/4 mile car. That's why it only has 26k on it. It looks pretty good in the pictures, but it's got its fair share of bumps and bruises when you get up close. It's been well cared for, but it's still 40 years old. My father retired recently and finally started to fool around with it again, but other than the last few years, it wasn't licensed after 73 and basically sat parked and covered from about 1980 until recently.
