  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

      Yes, I noticed that when I was researching the car. I also noticed you were one of the contributors with some great info on special color cars built in KS. In person, the color is a bit darker than in Tris’s photos. The white building in the background seems to lighten it up a bit!

      I know it's a long distance from Jacksonville, FL to Bowling Green, KY but please consider bringing the car to the 2025 GS Nationals in May. That's a rare '68 and lots of people would enjoy seeing it.

    Any more photos? Does she have the original drive train?

      I believe the drive train is original.....400-4 with Muncie close-ratio 4 speed. Unfortunately I don't have more photos but the original seller has a bunch on his website. www.pmclassiccars.com. under the Previously Sold category.

    Hello Ray,
    I remember this car from Wheatridge, Colorado in the 1980s. I often wondered if it was ordered by a Denver Bronco?

      Hi Mike,
      The color would certainly be good for a Bronco fan! Looking for the build sheet to see if there is a GM (non Buick) color code but no luck so far. Pontiac had a Carnival Red that looked close as well as Orange used on Chevy and GMC trucks. Denver would make sense as it ended up with a collector in Montana. Ray
