More info from the owner:

I bought the car off of the second owner, who happens to work with my father. Actually my older brother looked at the car about 8 years ago, but decided against buying it; I remembered taking it for a ride, and since I was in the market to buy something, I had my dad contact the owner. Lucky for me she still had it and her daughter did not want it. She bought the car in 1970 or 1973 after an older couple turned it back into the dealer. She saw it on the lot, bought it, and owned it until I took it off of her hands a few weeks ago. It has 39K original miles and is in decent shape. Runs great, however because the garage she had it in was little more than a shed with a dirt floor, there is some body rust. Should be a good project and I should have pictures in a few weeks.
