Recently relocated to L.A. after a decade in NYC, I'm on the hunt to purchase a '68 or '69 coupe to use as a daily driver (though luckily not a commuter - I work from home). The '69 Convertible is a legend in my family - my Dad purchased a gold one new, but it was wrecked on the autobahn in Germany where he was stationed only a couple years later.
Looking for a Coupe for myself to keep the dream alive. Seeking: -350 engine (anything more might be too much for me) -Auto trans -Power steering -Power drum or disc brakes (front is good enough) -As mechanically sound as possible + ready to drive -Rust-free body, but don't care at all about paint quality/imperfections. In fact prefer primer for now. -Interior quality doesn't matter, as long as it has seats to sit in
Seen a few here in L.A. area this summer, but haven't found "the one."
I know you're all gonna say "get in line," but any and all leads appreciated! Below is a photo of my mom in what started the obsession:
