Looking to buy 68-72 442, maybe a cutlass...

Looking to buy a 1968 to 1972 442 automatic. Looking for one that requires no body work, maybe a nice older restoration but the paint/body/pans/underside need to be good. Not too picky on color, just not yellow. Numbers matching motor/trans a plus, but not required. I like them as original as possible. A nice high quality driver for a weekend cruise and car shows here and there. Something ready to be enjoyed with minimal work required. Any help would be appreciated, I'm located in WI. Thanks!

I should note, I'm not looking to break the bank. 25k+ is out of my range.

Code 63 Copper w/ white vinyl top and Gold cloth bench seat/column shift interior. Very clean, No rust, No rot ever in any of the usual places. No dents/Scratches, Nice Chrome. All original mint condition interior door/side panels and dash. Has one seam split and one 1.5" tear on drivers side seat panel. Rear seat is mint. Headliner is torn in the rear and an aftermarket stereo is installed in the uncut dash. All mechanically stock except has Edelbrock carb/air cleaner added with HEI. All cosmetically stock except has later model SSIII chrome wheels and 442 rear bumper with cutouts and trumpet tips, Very SX looking. The 49 year old vinyl top should be changed at this time as well. Runs and drives great. Recently state inspected and I have a clean title. Asking $15,000.
