Sweet find!! Do you have the front hub caps? What drive train is in it? You are smart not to 'over restore' it.

Nice 68. I just hate those rap around rear bumpers though. My 67 had one and that was the first mod I did, cut those extensions off. They are period correct though.

Its plane as they come odd 2 options on glove box sticker thats all
04G50BA HD rear springs
04U16AB Tachometer (very odd 6 and tach)

6cyl 3 on the tree I am missing the front hubcaps he said they were stolen off it I am bidding on some on ebay. I am going to leave the finish alone other than the grille paint detail under the hood A clifford intake and valve cover would be cool but probably leave it alone

What is the story behind how you discovered it? Was it pure luck, or hard work?

I spotted it this summer at the church by the shop on every nice sunday it was there, I had tried to find the owner with no luck, then it was gone, I thought some one had got it, Then yesterday I was driving down the road and it was sitting at the corner gas station, I spotted it and wanted to stop but my wife was having a gathering so decided I better not, as I looked in my rear view mirror A notorious orange and black sign cought my eye I hit the brakes so hard I thought I was going to go through the windshield, and I love my wife but... So the guy was in the station and shot me a price I said I really liked it and I need to think a min on it I called my bother, then the guy lowered the price by 500 SOLD!!
