Ok, kind of a neat deal. Was at my cousins house in Hollister CA last week and he had received a phone call from the son of his old boss (20 years back). The son had about 6 cars he needed moved as his dads ex GF was damaging them and selling off parts for a habit she had. Anywho, one of the "Barn Find" cars is a black on black 72. The car as it sits has 4,686 miles on it. The bad thing is it sat outside for two years. I ended up making an offer and purchased the car. I did get a bit more of the story from the son and I guess the car has 1 repaint on it due to it being keyed two months after buying it.
So, the car has a few really neat options on it including factory sun roof, power windows, dual racing mirrors, concealed headlamps, tinted glass all, AC, sway bars, and 26" radiator. It also has something I've not seen before, a factory under dash cassette player, recorder with mic? It even has the original tires on it.
Here is another kicker, the car is a six pack car? Obviously not stock as they didn't make any six pack cars except two that somehow left the factory I guess (ghost cars?), and those had the V in the VIN. It has to be a swap, so now I need to figure out if I should swap it back to the stock config.
The two issues with the car are the trunk and the vinyl top. The trunk is very dull and the top is pretty rough on just the sunroof section. I have yeet to try a start as I'll need to plug plugs, drop oil and try to spin the motor by hand.
Here's a pic of the car.
