What a beautiful car! Many years ago, there was a car similar to this sitting in an open barn on Ball rd. Is this that car?

No...my car lived in Missouri and Indiana all its life before I purchased it in 2003. I haven't been out on Ball Road in quite some time. Wonder if the car you saw is still there?

It was maybe 8-10 years ago, I stopped at the farmhouse there and asked if it was for sale. It was not. I only saw it from a distance, but it was gold with a black top, BB car. Some years later, it dissappeared. I am most certain it is not there now.

Even though I own a '76 T top, I have to say that the '69 convertible is probably the best shape ever. Damned thing is just plain gorgeous.
