    The very rare factory power sunroof, although I think it went in more than 200. The design is a favorite of mine - love that fastback roofline - that was 1970-71 only. This one is a bit too high priced I'd say. Interior could use a good cleaning. And that upholstery is vinyl with hopsack cloth inserts - not leather.

    Nice. I like that color combo with the black vinyl roof.

    I thought so! I was in Spokane and Coeur d'Alene last week, and I saw that car! I didn't see anything indicating it was for sale, but as soon as I saw the pic, the neighborhood looked familiar, so I looked at the ad, and saw it said Spokane Valley.

    It is a great-looking car, that's for sure, but it seems like this guy is trying to recoup all his costs, and it's been nearly a year and a half since I saw it. But, greed breeds stupidity.

    The latter, usually, from the buyer's side, except for this case

    Perhaps the seller really doesn't want to let it go?

    A very desirable car but simply priced too high.
