 Yes you won't find a frame that original here in Ontario the land of excess road salt. Nova Scotia was worse.

very solid car. Is that the original Blue  paint in the trunk area? 




I noticed that on the firewall as well. And that's not meant to be a negative comment. That thing would be good looking in either colour.

The original colours, Tripoli Turquoise with a white top & interior, plus the wire wheel covers make me think that it would have looked like a convertible version of Canadianponcho member "Landshark"s 68 2+2.

Man that would be a seriously nice car restored. Good options. PW's in a Droptop is a must for a quick top down and get going.
For all that your getting, the price seems reasonable as well!

If it were closer I'd definitely take a peek.

Neat car! (Looks like a good power wash might get it back to the original blue colour. )

 Ouch!! Looks like one could truck wash that interior too. wink My opinion, but why paint parchment to black? Nicely optioned car though.

The irony in all this is that I parted out that green 68 2+2 396/325 hp convertible a few years ago - before I realized how much I like these cars.  Hate to admit it - but sent the car to the crusher with all the original fender louvers and 2+2 emblems - Dogh!
