Talked me out of buying it cuz $600 for an old used car was crazy....
Yeah, I passed on a pair of them in about '75. $500 for a fixer and a parts car, as I remember, both ran. I ended up with a '69 Nova straight 6 and moved from W. Va. to Eastern WA with it. Had to stop about every 500 miles and reset the points using my old match book cover for a gap gauge.
