The original? In it's 1975 form? I bet it would go for six figures.

This has been posted somewhere on here before, but I just had to post it here. Nice price too ;D
Hoping for forgiveness from Speedwell for stealing it from his blog ;)
Well, this is too weird... The address in this ad is the address of the condo where Greg and I lived in '75 and I don't remember ever wanting to sell the car at that time, or even running an ad to sell it. Maybe it's old age on my part... ???and I'm wrong. The picture in the ad was taken at the time of the cover shot was taken. I moved from that address also in '75, got married in '76 and in '79 the car (sadly to say) became "Unpractical" to be driving daily, for my only means of transportation. Also, needing some money at the time, is when I decided to sell it. I did get that amount or very close to it!
I'm going to double check with Greg about me trying to sell the car while we lived at that address and if he proves me wrong, I'll be back to let you all know. ??? :o :)
If anyone knows where this ad was posted and the date, I'd like to know!
Thanks..... Jim

Really cool to read your stories and information about this car Jim.
Speedwell scanned it and should know when and where the ad was placed.
