    Very proud of that car. Little worried about what’s happening under that vinyl top.

    They should stop calling those roofs "Vinyl Tops". Moon Child Roofs or Unborn Chucky Roof would be more appropriate

    It is at a dealer, so you could probably get it for around $10,000. Still to much for that base model with thin paint, cracked dash, and the previously mentioned rust issues under the vinyl top. Looks to be a 350 2bbl powered car also.

    But hey it just got warm here in Michigan, and its suppsed to have working A/C!

    base car, 350 2bbl, bench seat. Rust under top. Looks to be factory black, which gives it valor. $4500 on a good day.

    That convertible waiting to happen is presently bidded at twelve and a half grand. I wouldn't throw a bid, before he first peels off the top

    Only thing I like about this one is the round headlights.

    This one is not selling at auction, that $12,500 is the sellers asking price. And IMO it is more than 2X what the car is worth.

    I will give you the VIN Code K is for a 4bbl, but the duel exhaust on the car does not look stock, and as there are no underside pictures posted I was fooled, my bad.
