Keith do you have an invoice copy of the car that George Carlin bought new ?

I remember the 2nd owner selling it quite a few years ago with pictures of George , and some with George and his brother , taken when the car was new.
Probably 15-20 years ago iirc

Is the car with only AM radio still around? Do you know what area it was sold to? I owned a one option (AM radio) T/A in the early 1980s, and sold it about a year later when I got a 1972 455HO 4-spd car. The 70 T/A stayed local to the Charlotte area for about a year or so, then I saw it listed for sale in Hemmings. Mine was white with black interior. It had a later model engine in it.

There are two that show only one option. One of those has AM Radio, and the other one has "HD Radiator". The Heavy Duty Radiator was often added as mandatory content on the invoice of cars that were ordered with the M21 trans (which itself was a no cost option). So the buyer of the latter car may have thought they were not ordering ANY extra cost options.

I have no invoices that show zero options.

The car that has the AM Radio as its only option is a blue/blue 4-speed. It was listed on eBay by Restore a Muscle Car about 5 years ago, and was sold new in New Hampshire.

So there must have been at least two AM Radio only cars, including yours.

Pls see attached to you aide in your quest. I don't own the car but as of 2016-ish it was still around and sold at Mecum. I do own the engine and it resides in my Judge, hence why I paid for the PHS

Thanks. Interestingly the Trunk Mat is the least common of all selected options amongst the cars I have invoices for. Only 2% have it. It was standard with the deluxe interior, though, so only a standard interior car would have had it ordered as an individual item.
