If I remember correctly, it scored in the 98+ area and received Gold Certification. Only car I can ever remember shown in primer at Bloomington Gold or any NCRS meet I attended.

There were those in the NCRS who insisted that the Black 71 roadster was painted at the dealer...
I have inspected the car and there is no possible way unless they did not affix any of the labels, data plates, or weatherstripping from the factory which were over the paint including the body trim tag.
Owner is contemplating even dealing with the NCRS at this point as the car has been invited for a special display at Bloomington this year with the Black 72 Base engine Coupe.
