How can a 69 have only 500 original miles and still have everything new under the hood. What happened to the original motor?
Regardless if automatic or not if it is that good go for it.

When I was shopping for a vette last year, I came across an EBay auction for a 72 BB auto coupe. I couldn't believe my luck when it turned out to be in the next suburb over from me. I went to look at it and it was a good deal for what the guy wanted for it, so good that I would have bought it but it was an auto. Nothin against autos but sticks are so much more fun to drive.

Heck, it's a factory A/C big block! It'll go easy for that if it is as nice as advertised. I can relate to the Automatic thing, though. My '64 GTO was an automatic, which made it pretty unique, but I had a heck of a time selling it. Could have sold it 20 times if it had been a stick! As it was, the guy that bought it had met his bride in the back seat of one just like it 30 some years earlier, so he took it without even driving it. I miss that car...
