Wonder if..... Mine was a white with black interior car. Only 12XX and some ish LT1 convertibles in 1970.

Your friend's insurance agent might still have the VIN if he'd care. I've seen my old car for sale on line within the last couple of years.

I haven't seen Chuck since college - 50+ years ago.

Chuck's family owned a trucking company. When he shifted a manual - he didn't use the clutch - and never had an issue.

I remember seeing him do it for the first time in a 1969 442. To say he had "balls" was an understatement.
