If I find that info I'll send you the VIN to see which car it was.
Actually - I found my post on a Yahoo group I joined, "The Moontower", and I actually found my post from May 6th 2003! I think the car on Ebay was the "pretty" car, not yours. At least this way both cars are "known".

Go to e-bay and look up item no. 2406338688.
I am into cars of the 60s and 70s, and after some brief research on
dazed and confused.net, along with my own observations, the car
seems like THE one used for outside shots.

Um - that is 187,000 miles on it.....
Thanks for the info, I believe the ad is too old to be viewed now, though (or at least I can't see it). It definitely wasn't mine since I'd had it long before the auction -- must've been the auto (car #1). I don't really need the vin... unless others are documenting the cars. I had no idea there was this much interest in the cars used 20 years ago. I also had no idea my introductory thread would reach 3 full pages!
Thanks for the info!
