Wanted: 1970 442 Convertible

Looking to buy a #'s matching 1970 442 Convertible. I prefer blue or red w/white interior, but will consider other colors as well. Must be turn key & ready to go. Must have AC, 455 w/W-25 hood & functioning OAI induction, console shift, power windows, power disc front brakes & W-35 rear spoiler. thank you

FYI, W35 rear spoiler did not come on the convertibles. Chance are if its on there the dealer didn't install it either. Was done way later and most likely aftermarket spoiler. Of course if you like the look than that is all that matters.

Thanks. I like the look, & if it's already on the car it saves from me adding it & trying to match the paint. That twilight blue 442 you have is really sharp!

I spoke to the owner a couple days ago. Nice car but not #'s matching as the original block cracked & was replaced.

Thanks appreciate it. That craigslist car also has 71/72 side view mirrors and fenders.

Thanks Tom. I remember when this car came on the market. Are those 71-72 fenders also?

I didn't catch that, your'e right. The car seemed to have most of what you are looking for though. Good luck in the search.

I wouldn't stop 71/72 fenders from buying a car . To me its just a personal frustration as on one of my cars that had the original 70s had minor lead repairs, my body guy took them off and decided it was easier to work with repos than the originals. His idiot guys "lost" the fenders and a few other parts (rim, seat belts etc.) Ugh don't get me started
