Well it was a classy little car at one time. Age and weather has really taken it's toll on it. I really hope someone takes it and restores it. It was a special factory order, so there were none others like it. I'm told that it was the only one painted fire engine red that year. It was repainted in '89 while I was away in the army, and they didn't do a very good job. All the moldings have fallen off and the vinyl top is all dried up and cracking. While I was washing it for this picture I was remembering every little knick and dent it got, right down to the dent in the left front that my wife made when she first started driving. She hid in the bedroom crying because she though I would be mad. I'm working on a complete history in hopes that someone will be interested. My 3 yr old was recently diagnosed with Leukemia, and I realize I will never have the money to fix the car up, so it's gotta go.
