Default '62 Tempest Convertible Automatic Sought

I know...needle in a haystack. But, just thought I'd give it a shot and post this. I've seen a few online but nothing that interested me. I'm willing to pay decent dollars to acquire one. Looking for either a new restoration, past restoration that still looks good or an all original that is in decent shape. Not interested in doing much of any work. Does not have to be show but needs to be of very good driver quality

A Lemans series would even be better! 8 cylinder is preferred. And, AC would be a huge, huge plus but not required. I know, I'm dreaming...lol. I would most likely pay for a professional inspection/appraisal if the car for sale is long distance.

Crossing my fingers my timing is right...

Thanks so much for the reply.

Yes, saw that one. Definitely looking for something in better condition and 8 cylinder.

Fingers remain crossed...

I know! I'd be willing to pay those kinds of dollars for one.

Guys, please advise if you see anything.

Thanks again.

If I wanted a 62 vert I would not pass on the opportunity when an original V8 car showed up. http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/cto/4668729985.html
