I'm driving down the road here in Annapolis, and I catch the rear of this car, pretty sure it's a 67, might be 68. Whatever was left of the vent windows would not be there anyway. The rear of it is the only thing left original. I'll try to drive by again, looks like it might be getting ready for paint. Hef 1967 Firebird 400 4 Speed M20 Trans.
