There was one very unusual W31 in DM, a maroon post sedan with no chrome trim around the windows (maybe an F85), a black bench seat interior, plain steel wheels with dog-dish caps, white "Ram Rod" stickers on the fenders, an intact air cleaner with the under bumper intakes, and a very cool automatic shifter with a black shift ball with the shift pattern etched into it. The car was extremely clean and fast and was owned by a guy in his 20s who worked at the John Deere plant north of the city. I have always like W31s and appreciated their rarity because of that '68. Nice car you have.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like a beautiful car!!

They all make lasting impressions.
