Perfect car for that distance. 200 miles will seem like 50 compared to riding in a muscle car.

So Keith, are you going to swing the tempest off the rear deck like a life boat?

I wonder what the wheel looks like under that wrap? Usually pretty good!
Good for you Keith! After all the **** luck you've had in the last few years it's about time some good luck came through!

Very cool deal. You are gonna be happy when you cruise that thing. A perfect time capsule. You could really ice the passenger down with that A/C!

From looking at the radio, looks like it has the am/fm. Isnt the top bar a slide switch back & forth for AM & FM???

That is what I thought from looking at it too. Could be Wonderbar, but I think AM/FM. Tilt too!

Thanks for the links Alvin!!
Been looking real hard at the pics I have. Found lots of interesting stuff!! Car has a tilt wheel, an AM/FM radio, has a reverb & has a rear window defroster. The CB says its an Echo brand. The A/C unit says Wards Riverside Supreme. There is also a tag in the very top center of the console where it meets the bottom of the dash. Looks like someones name is on there. Cant make out the name but it ends in Jr. I see no signs of water inside the car anywhere. Door panels look perfect. The very top corner of the drivers seatback is split/cracked. I do see what looks like surface rust at the bottom right corner of the back window. All of the fenders, doors & 1/4's look great. There are door dings on the car & a small thin crease on the right rear side right above the GP emblem. Car has the orange with green Az lisc. plate that shows the last registration as July 1985. More to follow as I find it!
