Default Is this the 68 I almost bought?

I'll be damned if this is not the same car I tried to buy. Only problem is ex-forum member listed it as 107K and this says 70K. May not be same car but maybe.

OOPS!!! I realized in my haste it was a 3 vent car I voted on which was one of the reasons I left it alone. Never mind.

:crazy:

That car is just about perfect. Lovely light blue, hard-top roadster, chrome out back. The rims are a little... modern for the car, but at least they're nice. man, I gotta get a jay-oh-bee so I can get my C3! (anyone got openings in the operations/mfg/logistics feild for a recent grad?:D)
