"#497 out of #500 ever made before production "

Well.....not quite.

It does like pretty good in one picture from 10 feet away. Wonder what the rest of it looks like up close.

I didn't see any pictures, but maybe it's because I was looking in Safari. I'll try Explorer and see if they are still there.

The owner says it is white with a tan interior. I don't think I've ever seen that combination before. Usually if the factory ran out of something it was tan and they put in black. I've never heard it the other way around. Can anybody verify that this was a combination that came from the factory? Carl?

I may go look at the car on Saturday. Just what I need another car!

Here is the picture Bob. You are correct though, white with tan was not a stock combination. Only #907 green came with the tan as an interior option in 1970, so I would bet that the exterior color has been changed.
