That is an incredible Newport! I like that shade of green. Looks great.

I bid 55 hundred. I wasn't even close. LMAO....

I was surprised by the winning bid $$$. It is a very nice car.

Nice, nice C's are starting to bring money

Only thing that puzzled me is the very narrow gap between hood front edge and fenders with trim not sitting right. Did something like that go through quality control ? Wouldn't rather say this was some sloppy minor collision repair issue.

That was quality back then.

Very nice and triple green!

Paint really makes the difference on this car. That copper color would look outstanding too!

This one wears the green well

He was no dummy.
He took pics of it in front of a beautiful lush and green background...
