I just read this post as I have a one owner low mileage 73 convertible with some cool options! I know this dealership as when I was a kid and my dad was a wholesale car dealer we would travel through this town and by cars.......You could never by from him as he was out of sight on his used car prices.......I watched a 69 fastback literally sit on the dirt lot across from his main lot and rot away through the years.......We would stop once in a while just to try to buy it and the price never changed and I saw many cars and trucks there the same way........It was pretty sickening even as a kid..........I guess when you have to much money you can do things like that!!!!

Cool car! I had a maroon 72 351-4V and chased remnants of that comfort weave interior all over the country trying to get seats repaired. Mine was the "hounds tooth" comfort weave, beautiful, but hard to find in the 90's! Loved the way that thing drove and rode!
