    I had a 1970 Gran Coup back in the 1970's and it was white with black interior.  I loved the car but got rid of it because the fuel tank leaked.  I just wish I had never done that.  It was such a good driving car.

    Yea I know that is so true.  But also when I got rid of it was getting married and a 1970 Satelite Sebring Plus caught my eye and I traded for it.  That was the bad thing working at a dealership back then also.  So there was more than one reason to trade it off.
