Default 50th Birthday
50 years ago today Monday December 15, 1969 (Q15) my 69 L46 was built. I first owned it from 1996 to 2001. I currently have owned it since 2009. This picture is from Bloomington Gold 2010.

Congrats! Gotta love the pic of the men looking for flaws in a car, yet they don't care about how they look.
