Cool deal, sounds like it found a good home.  It looks as nice as I remember it roughly ten years ago  :drool5: :drool5: when I last saw it...forgot it was rear defogger that is cool option.

Wow, great score on the 500! Gotta love the old paint  :yesnod:

Mine also has the rear defogger option. Any idea where your car was sold when new?

Maybe it is just me, but I will bet there are a lot more people who want a XX car than people that have them! Myself included.  I feel lucky to have a clone :cheers:

I promised myself that I would own a XX car in my life time. My wife and JR made this happen. I'm gratefully for having the wife that I have and a friend like JR.

Congratulations to you on the 500 !!  A lucky man indeed !! In your pictures you posted, it looks like it has a 22" radiator. Without A/C, I guess, the 500's did come with the 22" radiator unless ordered or made with the max cooling package. The car also looks to be R6 Red but the picture of the engine compartment shows the fender tag removed. Lighting can do funny things to pictures and my color blindness might be working here and it is a R4 colored car. Do you have it or the broadcast sheet or the tag put away as I am just wondering about the color. It looks like one of the best "survivor 500's" out there.

The car I believe was sold new in Washington State, or Oregon. It has a 22" core with only a two row. The car is a R-4, The engine bay was repainted in it life time, don't no when, but the outside is OEM paint to my knowledge. The fender tag is secured. No build sheet.

In pictures, it is hard for me to tell the color. Especially the reds with my colorblindness problem. Not totally colorblind and have the most trouble with "earth tones" rather than red and green. Anyway, really nice 500 and keep her rolling shiny side up !!!

QuoteThe car I believe was sold new in Washington State, or Oregon.

Well that would sure explain the rear defogger! The high humidity and constant rain on the West sides of the State made them almost mandatory. My first car, a 69a did not have one and you pretty much just learned to drive without being able to see anywhere but forward.

Congrats on you new toy.

I intend to keep it just as it is, for as long as I can. As they say it's only original once.   :2thumbs:
