    I don't recall seeing this one before. It's one of the nicest to come along, but it is slightly weirdly optioned. It has most everything you would expect, including cruise control, twilight sentinel, Tempmatic A/C, fuel economy gauge and trip odometer, passenger-side remote mirror, and AM/FM/8-track.

    But there are some odd omissions. There is no power antenna, which I don't think I've ever seen on one of these before. They're relying on the in-windshield antenna. There is also no rear window defogger, which is also an omission I've not seen before and was probably seen by most buyers as a necessity more than a luxury.

    The carmine red (like mine!) color with black(?), or at least darker red, vinyl top is also unusual.

    The seller is a dealer, asking $14,900. He has over 80 photos.
