Re: used cars-Jan. 1969

I also remember those days quite well. I actually bought a '62 Impala 2-Dr Sport Coupe with a 283 and recent New Paint in February of '69 for $450.

But the great deal I passed on was a '56 Chevy Convertible in '68. Black on Black, Solid #3 Condition with recent New Paint for $295!! The problem was, I wanted a V-8 with a Manual Trans and this was a 6 Cylinder with an Auto Trans. To a 15 year old kid, changing one of them would be possible, but changing out both was a little too much, therefore I passed.

...wish I bought it and stored it in a garage all these years though.
