    That's just an overnighter. Then you could look at mine on the way thru.

    Numbers, a MOUNTAIN of paperwork- POP, original window sticker, sales agreement, receipts, 5, yes, FIVE build sheets (still 1 probably under the gas tank), factory original interior (including the carpet), top, body panels, rims, lug nuts, center caps, etc. No rust/rot. Radiator support is pristine, as is the inner fenders. Original owner rebuilt the numbers matching engine in the late 1980's/ early 1990's.

    Only things not original: exhaust, paint (one crappy repaint in 1989), front suspension (I rebuilt it in 2017 and only has 200 miles on it), power disc brakes (was a manual drum car), chrome on the front bumper (had it rechromed), drivers side mirror (rechromed), door handles (rechromed), tilt, sport steering wheel.

    This is a factory bucket seat, column shifted convertible. Options were: buckets, remote door mirror, AM radio w/ rear speaker, F41 suspension (rear sway bar), chrome plated wheels, speed alert. Color is Crystal Blue with black top/black interior.

    Only reason I sold it was to help fund the purchase of my house. Otherwise, it would still be with me. I have yet to see a 69 as original and rust free as this one.

    Originally from WA, and the only reason it left WA was because my buddy George wanted it more than me, lol.
