Old Man with a Hat
Yep, he's a member here ..... I inquired about Joel's car, gotta be 20 years ago now
I purchased this car sight unseen. Ugh, what a turd! Carsten can attest to that. He smelled the car personally when he visited me back when I owned it. I had high hopes for the car while awaiting its arrival from the shipper. When I walked to the shopping center parking lot to pick up the car , it was still on the trailer. I seriously considered turning around... I took the car to the Turkey Rod Run that year and dropped it on Tuesday before Thanksgiving. I was resolved in the fact that I WOULD NOT take it home, no matter how much money I lost on the car. It was that bad. I sold it that weekend at the show to a Finnish man , supposedly to go to Finland. I saw it about 6 months later for sale wearing the new convertible top that I bought for it while waiting for it to arrive when I purchased it. It was in south FL then. I am not sure what happened to it after that.Reviving this thread to add the VIN for searchability. Has anyone seen CM27T0C159165 more recently?

I have found photos of this burgundy 1970 300 'vert taken in Princeton, IL back in 2014 (why do I think that it is the same car? look not only at the panel in the rear seat, but also at the matching options and at the alignment of the headlight covers):
