Another one that got away - 77 NYB

[300rag]

This one left within the last 2 years to Oz and is now up for sale, but far from inexpensive. Looks real nice though. Lots of pictures in the listing too. Stan, Bob, comments.

Very nice St. Regis car. It's in excellent turn key condition and needs nothing. I would buy it if it wasn't so far away. LOL!

This car was garaged it's entire life. No fading or deterioration on the package tray, rear seat back seams not coming apart, sail panels perfect, no rust around the rear glass, no rust in the bottom of the rear quarters. Hell, no rust anywhere! Passenger side power seat....only 20% of them have that. Mine does also. Roof rail seals appear to be perfect. I wish there was more interior pictures. I love the color package and the St, Regis package on it. I bet the steering wheel doesn't have any cracks.

It's one of the best formal NY'ers I ever seen!!!

I sew a few insignificant issues but like you say it is one of the best. Nice to see a contrasting roof from the white body on one of those for a change

I saw those interior pic's and thought it was my car........I wish!!!! LOL!

I wonder if I could McGuyver a St Regis vinyl top on my 4 door??? LOL!

All the superlatives in the description bother me, but especially this one"

corinthian italian LEATHER INTERIOR…

Corinthian refers to Greece...

The opera window on a hardtop may be a slight problem. You can go the fake convertible roof route though...

Excellent condition, but I don't care for white. I prefer a contrast between the paint and the chrome. On white cars the white washes out the chrome, I find.

Minus the opera window.....I would just bring the vinyl back to the same part of the roof. I just don't like the vinyl around the rear window. LOL!

 

[1978 NYB]

That blue is the color my vinyl is SUPPOSE to be according to the build sheet. My vinyl top is black and was not option with PB3 Cadet Blue. Check your paint & trim book....black was not a vinyl top option for that paint color.

Sitting in one you feel like you're inside a smurf.

 

[vdk2010]

I mean to be inside a smurf. Of course.
