    I dad bought this fast back for me when I was thirteen years old, drove it to catholic school when I was in the eight grade parked it around the block, the nuns would not like it if they found out. I had a blast with it.

    I have the same identical car, including the wheels. Mine has a red interior and side trim has red stripes in the middle though. Mine also has a perfect dash pad and factory AM/FM mono radio. No hood pins on mine because they never came with them from the factory. Mine has been restored to top concourse quality including the hose clamps, etc. It was a Macon GA barn find that I bought for $750. 8 years, and $20+ k later, it became 100% restored correctly. Even the wheels are the right vintage and I found them at a FL scrapyard half buried in the sand.

    • @VistaCollectorCars

      Very cool. I think that the black with red interior is a great color combo.

    I have a white XL500 390. Black is looking a bit nicer to me but I think keeping it the original white may help the sale price.
