    No dates in VIN ... check your door jam decal for a month/year ...

    I would guess 08/69 through 10/69 would have the rimblow ...

    I figured I was wrong with the date.

    I'm leaving at 4pm to drive her home. I'll get a better look tonight

    It took the guy 15 miniutes to find the key.....I asked if I can have it, but he wanted to keep it:)

    Ride home went very well. Call me, I should be home all day cleaning her up.

    Cool find. Did you find it in the Freehold area. I'm just down the road on the other side of Six Flags off of 537 in Jackson. - Matt

    I work up by short hills. I found it up there.

    You ever head out to any of the cruise nights or car meets around here?

    I've been to the cruise nights in Freehold and in New Egypt, also try to go out to the spring and fall Englishtown swap meets. Might get my Comet out on the road before the end of summer. - Matt
