I just dragged my trailer up to Reno on Tuesday to get it. Its a clean little '65 coupe... 289/2V/C4... blue with white interior. The paint is older but its in nice shape. Its a very straight, rust free car that's spent most of its life in the garage. The engine and tranny were rebuilt 2500 miles ago. The interior needs a good bit of work though (mainly seats and door panels). It was originally from Eureka so I got the CA black plates with the car.

Ha ha. I can't update my sig. I sold the convertible so I have the two coupes ('65 and '66) and my '65 fastback.

Looks really straight from the picture. Nice buy. How'd the raptor do pulling it?

Thanks!

The Raptor is the best tow vehicle I've had... all the towing gadgets and power to spare. [Big Grin]

The basics. It needs seats and door panels. Beyond that, just some clean up and detailing.

Nothing. I've looked at plenty of '67-'68 coupes. I actually prefer those to the early coupes. I just haven't found one that I like well enough to buy. Plus, the market for the early coupes is stronger. As for '69 and '70 coupes, they're just ugly. I love the '69 and '70 Fastbacks though.
