Hey thanks Crossram, I really appreciate it.

The color is turquoise according to this: http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/63dgpt1.jpg

What I think is interesting is the car was built on Oct. 25 and I have the original bill of sale on Nov. 9 1962. I guess it didn't sit on the lot very long. Gotta be a two day trip to get the car to Rockland, Maine. The owner traded in a 59 dodge for it.

If it also had Y2 on the plate it would mean SOLD CAR expediate delivery.....

Nice car! I wish mine looked that nice when I bought it.

The fact that it's an original BB car is definitely a bonus.

Get it running and enjoy it a while before you tear into it.

Hi there Mr Itis

The red one's ours and the blue one's currently (or last i heard) owned by a friend who lives near Oxford.
It was imported in early 2005 and restored over the next few years by a guy up in Yorkshire. The car was originally a 383 car but now sports the usual 426 bits & bobs :glasses10:
I havent got a clue what state it came from, but it did have a CA plate on it when i first saw it.....

Here it is in July 2005, before resto
