Never found out what happened to it or to a dark green '73 454 automatic Stingray that he also had.

I bought this thing almost 25 years ago and promised my wife I would just keep it a short while and "flip" it...





All I can say is, I'm still trying...!!!

Good luck... GUSTO

Here are some of my '73. Three owner, 50K miles, 454/4-speed. It was sold new in Tucson AZ, then went to San Diego CA, and now in Austin TX. It has no idea of what rust is
