    The search goes on.......
    I see your car is no PB, disc or drums? PS? Is this a mostly original car? #'s all correct? Options? What is the mileage?

    John, Are you looking for a specific car, or any '70 black stage1 four speed car will do?

    PS and drum brakes all around.

    NOM - 70 SF (replaced original in the late 70's.)

    Original M21 and 3:64 rear. Just turned 50K original miles.

    No, I am not looking for a specific car. The only double black, hub cap and PS 1970 Stage 1 four speed, was the one I saw on eBay about 3-4 years ago. At the time, it belonged to Scott Forrester, and he told me that Scott White had it now. If someone has similar, I could be interested! Do you have one or know of one?

    Considering there were only around 160 black on black GS 455's built at Flint in 1970, with presumably a very low number of them being Stage 1 cars (and a lower number of 4-speeds) I'm not sure there are many left.

    So, the answer to that question is, I don't.

    Do you only want factory black, or will aquamist or blue or another color work? 4 speeds only?

    Using my personal theory of relativity and logistics, I guess that's why I was looking for this Scott White car!

    Prefer #'s matching, factory black in and out, 4 speed, hub caps and PS as my first choice. Other colours, yes, I might consider, but again, prefer #'s matching, 4 speed and hub caps.

    The only one I may know of is in rough shape. I'd guess it's Bamboo Cream, and I'm not certain it's a Stage 1.
    I don't have pics of the cowl tag, vin, or any supporting paperwork. Pretty much a long shot at this point.

    Good morning Dan! Thank-you for pointing out your car, but I'm not a red car guy or into colour change. Thanks again!
