This coupe is the real deal and was purchased today by a friend here in Orange County. We went over it with a paint gauge and a magnet, crawled all over it, new owner drove it. It was bought as a one year old used car in 73 in Santa Monica for $11K and kept in the same family ever since, handed down from father to son. It has correct blue plates, reams of service records, all of the correct tools, a pristine original headliner, original interior with new leather on front seats, repainted once, shiny chrome everywhere, 66K original miles, etc.
A few years ago it might have been a $20-25K coupe but not any more, this is entry level for a sold chassis, driver quality paint (this one is better!) that just needs some cosmetics addressed like removing side rub strips and a 5 speed. Congrats to the new owner!
