Hey there Joe
,
One just like yours right near me and the same color! An older lady drives it daily and it looks to be in good condition.
I saw that one on E-bay! It was yellow but with the brown/cream interior. I figure mine was an easier change do to it having the black interior like our original one. I also got mine off E-bay in a round-about manner. If you saw it it was listed about 2 years ago in Lawndale, CA down near Long Beach for no reserve. I never bid and it hit $183.50. I called the guy and asked him what he would like to take it off his hands and he told me $300.00
. I was there that evening looking at it in the dark and struck a deal. It does need front fenders...they are rusted on the vertical portion next to where the hood rests but the top is in excellent condition for having a Cordova top.
When I first talked to the guy I thought maybe it had been our original car do to having a '69 400 and the black and gold Californisa plates. That was the same engine my dad replaced the 389 with after the water in the gas tank incident from his 4 year old son (me).
Anyway...it turned out to not be ours but the perfect specimen for my childhood to re-live once again.
