Holy crap Pete, that's my car! I mean it must be, mine is the only one that was sold new and lived its life in Phoenix, and the mileage matches as well. I had no idea this classified ad ever existed, this is awesome! According to my old titles this timing also roughly lines up with a change of ownership. Wonder if the ph# still works...
Thanks!!!

Continuing on, I just did a search on that ph#, and it looks like the car was advertised almost exactly one year earlier in the same newspaper. Pete, is it possible you can lookup this ph# from the April 5, 1974 issue of the Arizona Republic? I can't see the ad itself, but the summary of the OCR scan says it had &quot;13,000 total miles&quot; at that point. If you can't get the ad no sweat, what you've posted already is tremendously cool.
Thanks!
