I agree that it is a rare car and maybe a great find. If you were to restore that car would you actually have a restored 66 gold car or a reproduced 6 gold car. I mean with all that rust and so much of the car having been replaced how much of it would be rare when it's done. It's a shame such a beautiful car got to that condition.

It is cool to see another one of these cars show up. Too bad it is in such terrible condition. The non-V VIN is 5 numbers before mine but I find the reply to the question interesting regarding it being a "show car" as the reason for the other VIN. I really doubt this was a show car with all the salt rust wear and ruin. Nice to see the paperwork with it but no door tag photo. Everything else looks like it should.

Thanks for the correction. I guess I just forgot I saw that after all the rust and rot. The numbers and codes are all spot on for these cars. I would still be interested in finding out where they got the number 49 out of 50 for this car since mine is 5 numbers after this one and they were all built on the same day at the San Jose plant. Hope someone with the time, money and passion picks this one up and restores it back.

3680$ It bought good money for the rust. But with the numbers built, not to much.
