The "new top" looks like it's 10 years old.

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

Found it on Cars for sale .com

This 68 Vert looks like it is being resold I remember seeing it sell for around $ 15,000 a few weeks ago on this site. Now listing at $ 26,000. I like the car but not the new price. To bad it did not sell to someone that could enjoy the car and a great deal.

$26k will be a stretch. Lots of bondo on the tail panel.

Firebird emblem and name also sits high on the front fenders (Higher than the ones on my original fenders), so I'd say they have been replaced. Perhaps not such a rust free Arizonan car.
