Probably very few made.
Both are uncommon, together is unheard of

I'm still dying to nail one of these triple silver bad boys:
PS: Notice how the '78 Salons used the 74/75 Imp rear window plug.

Wasn't there a low mileage (about 5,000 miles) Ny'er you were going to buy? Is this that one you were talking about?

as I said the other day, silver became more common in the mid 70's

Especially on GM cars.

Really? I.ve seen a bunch of 70's caprices and impalas in silver
That's what I meant to say. I've seen a lot of silver Cadillac's, Caprice's, Buick's, Pontiac's, Oldsmobile's. I haven't seen a lot of silver Mopar's or Ford's.

The one I wanted had aprox. 8k miles. And that one ended up ultimately in Europe.... I blew it.

I like silver cars, though it is everywhere these days. The '09 Buick Lacrosse I used to own was a silver GM called Quicksilver which is a really nice, bright silver. Mine had a light gray leather interior and looked good, a nice change from the typical black.
In the '70s Ford ran a lot of silver LTD's and they had a Dove gray interior that was a very light gray, almost silverish. They used an upholstery that some called "panty cloth" for obvious reasons if you saw it, which looked really sharp in those cars, almost as nice as a red interior with a silver exterior. You could also often spec a dark blue interior back then, which also looked good with silver paint. No such animal today, sadly.

Nothing too fancy, especially to warrant that kind of money.

We just can't compete with them these days.

That's my point. With the U.S. economy up against the global economy, we can't compete.
Isn't the Euro economy terrible?

The U.S. is in "I can't afford to spend any more money" mode.
Europe is in "Spend it before it's worthless" mode.
They got it. We had it. They WILL be like us. Then the Europeans will be selling all their American purchases to India and China and bemoaning the fact.

My whole life I've heard how terrible the economy is & how hard it is to get ahead, yet I see wealth everywhere I look. I'm a little baffled.
I see plenty of poverty too but it's mostly people trapped in a cycle that they can't escape. Lots of circumstances too obviously but mostly people who were destined for it.

You're right. You see it everywhere. And all you see elsewhere is poverty. What's missing? The middle class that made this country what it is. The middle class started getting moved down to the lower class beginning in the early 80's. The middle class wealth was siphoned off by the rich and the middle class evolved down and was added to the lower class. We've become India, Brazil, etc.
But all this socio-economic workings are beyond 90% of people who only look up and down their street and are fed purely by the diarrhea of what is mistakingly referred to as the news media.
