Just curious if it's still out there, although I doubt it. My parents bought it new, and I wish I had that car. I remember going with my Mom and grandfather in it to feed the ducks at a local park. I also remember it stalling in the middle of a busy road at rush hour, and being afraid the police would arrest my mom (hey, I was only 5 or 6 years old..lol), and a truck driver coming along and pushing us to the side. That was in about 68 or 69. It was red with a white hardtop, and a black interior. Can anyone decode what engine it had? I still have the original owners manual, accesory booklet, owner protection plan booklet and a 3 year car warranty from Mich-I-Penn oil and grease company. I also have a few service orders from it. They purchased it on 12-8-62, and on 6-6-63 had the right bank cylinders adjusted and carb adjusted and engine timed at only 3,899 miles. They also had some other engine work done a couple months later. VIN was 31847F157233. I remember they sold it in around 1973 to some young guy who towed it home. They sold it for $150, and I remember the front floorboards were rusting through, and the rear bottom part of the fenders were rusting through. Ahhh to go back in time and get that car for myself...lol.
