I come across a sweet '69 today in West Bend, Wi.

I was at the Advance Autoparts store getting everything I need to rebuild the brakes in my truck. And the '69 was pointed out by the store guy when it was at the stop lights. Stupid me, I keep forgetting I have a camera in my phone. So I don't have any pics, but it looked like this one in the picture and is not a R/T, but it also has a white top, interiour, and tail stripe. Has the Magnums too with nice fat tires on the back. It was a couple who looked to be in there 50s that stopped at McDonalds to get a bite to eat. They were still there after I left the store, so I drove over by them and introduced myself. The car is mint. I asked the owner if he was on this site, he never heard of it. So, of course, I gave it a nice plug. They sounded interested, so I hope they join up. Now I just need to meet the owner of a nice black '68 R/T in West Bend. The paint looked a little lighter than the car pictured though. Maybe it was the white top. What is that? Light Turquise?

The car pictured is Q5 Turquoise. You said the car you saw was a bit lighter which means it could of been B3.

Heres an example of B3

Looked a little lighter then that Cody. Almost silver with a light green tint to it.

Could it have been A4 platinum? A4 tends to get a little green with age....Check out my sig picture for A4...

I'd say your right. Plus having the white top, stripe and interiour brightens the look too.

I've seen that car too a couple years ago, very sharp, almost wrecked my van while rubber necking it.

He lives north of Fleet & Farm a few blocks. I have a gut feeling that it might be a low milage survivor R/T. He has owned it a long time. 90% of the time when I see it, it is backed inside his garage without a cover on it. And I've only seen it on the road 2 times in a long time.
