Is that the car that Dan Mamsen did years ago? I remember seeing the car at his place in Medinah years ago with the bench seat, original gold car. Of course Dan owned quite a few great cars including Yenko and Copo cars.

I wasn't aware black standard was available in bench in '69. Must be a rare piece!

Mark, that is the one Dan Mamsem restored in the 90s and only has about 3000 miles on it since being restored. It started life as a big block olympic gold with a vinyl top and standard black bucket seat interior.
Thanks Dan, Skip really took good care of the car I think he owned it since the late 90s.
I know the bench seat was added not sure if it was just recovered as a 69 interior.

I've either seen the car or there are two with that seat.
It was never available, so that's some custom covers....
