Default I jumped in and joined the C2 crowd!

I've been looking for a second generation coupe and found this '67 about an hour away. Wanted the '63 but '67 a very close second. The car is very original but has the stinger hood and a repaint. Has the 327-350, matching number. 4 speed, elec windows, power steering and brakes. Factory side exhaust. No rust underneath but there is some old undercoating and grease etc. it has 82k miles. The previous owner had it 17 years and babied it.
I've spent a lot of time on the C7 forum and look forward to great discussion and advise that I can find here. Thanks in advance.

Welcome! That's quite a pair you have. The greens are some of my favorite colors of the era!

Nice!!!! Doesn't look too bad for your consolation prize ('67 instead of '63).

Welcome to the C 2 world. I had a Goodwood Green 67 I liked it but some don't care for the Green. Someone must have liked it because it out sold every other color in 67. You have a good looking C2 there.
