Wowzers, someone went all out on that purchase in 68. Cruzin in first class style with street cred performance. Impressive.

Nice article Diego! Interesting that it was April Gold from the factory and now resale red...but looks really good.

Yeah, I gotta catch up with you. I think, in a year, this was my third visit there. Haven't done much car stuff--mainly family. And the summers here suck.

Absolutely beautiful! The fact that I could get my ‘69 Executive coupe looking almost like that (although not a convertible) is pretty inspiring. Although I probably don’t have the money or the time…

Anyone know if those tri-spoke dish hubcaps are factory?

I don't think the hubcaps are correct for 1968, they don't show up in factory literature for that year.

I think they are like a 1970 item or something like that.

It's about 40 minutes for me... I don't go up there much. I think Pontiac night is the 2nd Saturday each month? I'm trying to coordinate to get up there with the guy who bought my 10th Anniversary - he only lives about 10 minutes away.
