Welcome to the 73 club! Looks like a very nice car and should be very original at that mileage.

Make sure that you post lots of pics!!!!

Very nice. You have 11,000 fewer miles than I do. How do these cars get to be this old and have so few miles. Coming up on 40 years and you are avg slightly less than 10,000 per decade . I am getting 12,000 per decade.
