I purchased it in Duluth, from a party who has had it since 1972. It was previously owned by a minister, who purchased the car new. Also, the car is titled as a 1969 but is a 1968 sheet metal carryover. Also, it has a blue split bench front seat, rather than a turquoise bucket seat

Additional information "March 2012 from Rich Berger of Midwest Rod & Custom in Lake Park, MN: "The car was in a collision in 1972, and I was allowed to work on the car with Larry. I straightened out the body and paint, and Larry and I can be seen putting on the top in the pictures above. Larry did all the teardown, refurbish, and reassembly."
