Maaaaan...what a sweet piece! .

Besides the colors, I love the bench/stick combo!.
Was red carpet included as part of a red vinyl interior pkg. or a specific extra choice or option?.

That rear shot in the orchard at dusk looks like a brochure shot!.

Wayne has been able to get his hands on a few more photos and slides and forwarded these to me recently. This shot is the 1st day home from the dealership - Friday, 13 April 1969. Wayne was very happy and proud that day and took the time to chronicle his big day...





*** <u><font color="red">LICENSE PLATE FRAME </font> </u> ***

I have been contacting all the antique shops in the area of Rocky Mount VA. Altho, some say they see Wickline stuff (now closed) from time to time, I have not snatched a license plate frame yet. Let me know if anyone comes across one! Thanks
