Been looking at this one for a while (since September) and things worked out. Been too long since my ole 67 Eco. Picked this gal up on the way back from our Christmas trip to WV. She came from near Frederick, MD. been owned and garage kept by the gentleman since 92 and he babied it. Never in salt or snow. Really sad since he's getting dementia and can't drive anymore.Picked it up last Wednesday night and drove it back the next day, all 400 plus miles of test drive. Drove and rode well. A little too much Cadillac feel here and there, but nice. Anyway, the pics below are from the PO's grandson and I will take some more soon. Weather in SE NC has been wet and going to get worse.

-Update headlights to brighter
-Instrument bulbs - weak
-Figure out dome lamp situation (switches there, but only reading lights throughout) - More investigation required
-Vent window, and sweep rubber replacement (maybe new latches)
-Windshield seal (bottom middle seam temp. repaired)
-Fix, replace, or do away with bug shield (cracked)
