Wayne Hergbert, Alton ON.

Sounds like he bought the GP as an almost new demo.

Wonder if it is a two door h/t and what colour combination.

Of course a four speed would be too much to be thinking of!

I tried finding him online but no luck.

And yes, a 4 speed would pretty much be the cat's meow. Might as well dream of it being a solid lifter 427 right away too...

OK, if you include '67's and two door post B's.

And Custom Sports, 2 + 2's and Parisiennes, Stratos and Laurentians.

Oh yeah and include '65s, '68s, '69s and '70s.

We could call it Hillar's General 65-70 Forum.

Waddyathink?
