AWESOME!!! my wife and my mother in law (who co-signed loan) like a mustard yellow one, I fell in love with the Orange.  so, I talked them into having me flip a coin, which put me in control, and of course I showed the coin to be a heads and I won the choice.  guess what I gave up.  a CPO427, but at 18 years of age, did not sink in.  but I would never regret what I got.  I guess I am loaded with stories.  I have been honored to be asked what the color is and others have painted different models of cars with it.

well, thanks for that.  does that make it worth more.  I am 69 years old and not well versed on the "machines".  I have a pic, but can't figure how to place. it says the pic is too big.  the car has the multi leaf  stager rear springs, front  power disc & rear drums.  it came with just stock gm rims and moon style hub caps. a real sleeper.  has the late '69 hockey puc stripes, and the chrome hood ornaments.  I have raced the car in the past and best time at Columbus, Ohio was 11.85 in the quarter.  because I loved the car so much, I actually talked a local airport into becoming a 1/8 IHRA sanctioned track in the early to late  70's. that way I did not have to tow over 2 hours to get to as Race track.  to this day, I am asked to sell, but will never do so.  I took the stock rims off in the first year, put chrome side pipes on it in the first year and never changed its look since then.  I also started 2 different car clubs in the past.  opps too much talking.  thanks for listening.
