Just kidding....
Here's the scoop:
Bought the car in 2005 from a gentleman in Northridge. My intent was to build it for my oldest daughter (now 15) but she has become a real Corvette C3 nut. Since we have a '70 LT-1 here waiting to be restored she's opted for it. Now the '69 307 car needs to find a new home. I've kept it out doors here in So Cal since but under a very good cover:
He was the original owner and had only a copy of the sales contract from Bliss & Paden in LA. Purchase price was $3372. According to the original owner, there was a brown RS right next to this car on the lot. His wife really wanted it but it was $500 more and he didn't want to spend the cash. So he bought this car and paid the dealer to install a vinyl roof to make his wife happy. Here is the trim tag:

As you can see, not brown nor a vinyl top when it left Norwood.
