The yellow GT350 is pretty rare.  I think there were only 7 built if I remember correctly.  I wonder how many had a/c?  Do you happen to know the number on that one?

I think I might be in the picture in reply 1.  Tough to tell, add 30 pounds and 30 years.

From Pete's website (The Coralsnake):
"Notes: Seven GT350 convertibles were scheduled to be yellow, but only six were produced. One of these cars was painted white by mistake."

I have some later photos of the yellow conv. I'll try to dig this out too. Unfortunately, I don't have the ID #.
Between the Yellow paint, A/C, auto trans, and the location in NJ, I would think the car is known. We just might need Pete's to ID it.

So which person might be you?
The guy in the red t-shirt and flannel jacket was my buddy Andy.

The one next to him at the left corner of the hood.  Tough to tell, but looks like the gray uniform shirt and the black Goodrich Radial T/A jacket everyone I worked with wore, and my Beatle-ish do.   

The maroon one, if original, would be even more rare.  1 of 2 maroon KR fastbacks.  Stripe appears to be missing.

Thanks to Pete...the Yellow 68 GT350 convertible is #2600.
