Nice, looks like it doesn't need much work from the photos. Is that an Aero car GM in your garage as well?

Thanks guys! Yep...that's a 87 Aerocoupe...now displaced from it's cozy home. I need some more garage space! The 68 needs some of it's interior put back together, door and trunk seals, gauges fixed, heater sorted out and vinyl roof finished.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I've been looking for a second generation since I sold my T-7 '69 Charger. Been watching cars that became available and found this car on Seattle Craigslist. For the heck of it I shot the guy an e-mail with my phone number and he called me first since I had a local number. The car was 10 minutes north of me. He did a lot of work on the car and just lost interest in it...I guess. He was a very nice and gave me a great deal! Non-stock 318 auto. No data plate! I think the color is MM1. There is a lot of little stuff to be done, but I'm looking forward to it!
