1972 4 speed V code convertible 442 on eBay

Not many made to begin with, and certainly can’t be too many left - love to see more photos. (And drive it, and own it). Restored by the world famous Thornton family. Southeastern Pennsylvania represented!

Note memo from from Mrs Earley circa 1980 (photo 3).

I think I have something from her as well tucked away in my files.

Wow. Can’t believe he’s selling that. It was his uncle’s car years ago and he tried to buy it for ages before finally getting it and having it restored. I haven’t featured that car on my V Code Facebook page yet but sounds like it’s a good time to do so. I have pics going back about 18 years....

Terry could you put a link to your Facebook V code page on here. Call me crazy but I do not, and have never had, Facebook - CO is my primary (only) social media.

Also do the numbers reported by Mrs. Earley of 77 CS hardtop coupes and 66 CS convertibles align with what you have regarding V code units in 72?

Those production numbers match perfectly - I got that letter from Greg Mross back in 2001. I've owned 4 of the 77 Supreme hardtops and one of the 66 convertibles since 2001.

Here's the Facebook V Code page link - you may need to join to see the page content.

Here's a link to my old V Code website:

Here's the page for the car being discussed. I have a bunch of before and after pics too. I'll need to dig them up.
