I asked my wife If she would like this car instead of my hardtop SD, she still says no???

I'd like to see some underneath pics.

from what I remember, the car was super nice, just a touch above driver quality. and the owner at that time ( 10 years ago , ) enjoyed driving it!

i dont have any solid proof of the numbers, but i figured that this site would know info like that. Possibly based on being a convert 4speed, with the 325 hp 396.

Supposedly this is one of only 7 made. How many are left?
The conv. is in good shape but does need some restoration, body is in relatively good shape. Looking around the $30K mark.

more pics would help, in my opinion, this car was restored 15 + years ago, well cared for.

It's a tough car to put a price on with out a in person visual.
