This one was sitting out in the open back in 2006. He didn't want to sell it then but did eventually.

I purchased from the family in 2013 and still have this car. Did you take these pics?   Looks like between 2006 and 2013 the horn button disappeared. I'd be curious  to find out about where it was at the time.

Heres how it was being stored

The car in Reply #300 above belonged to my Father from 1974 to 2011/2012 time frame. The car was wrecked/totaled in the 70/71 time frame (ended up belonging to an Insurance Company). It set in a Junkyard until 1974 when the guy that originally wrecked it went and got it out of the Junkyard and brought it to my Father - we were looking for parts I needed for my car. It had already been stripped of any "good" before it got to us but we got four or five items off it. My brother used the third member in a 70 Bronco way back in the day. I still have the original bent-up grille.
A guy bought this "hull" from my Father around 2011/2012 with a goal to "return it to it's original beauty". I have lost track of what happened to it after that but it hasn't turned up to my knowledge.
Just a few details to go with the pictures. You would not believe how many people hunted down my Father to ask about the car over the years. He got to where he would create "unusual stories" to tell about it's history for his own entertainment.
By the way, I have provided a full and complete story about this car to Dave Mathews.

Hi All 67 fans,
Just curious where the pic in post # 307 was from....simply says 1967...it is an unusual pic for several reasons (angle-lighting-and color to name a few)
Thanks in advance for providing it....would really love to know more.

That’s gotta be 0176, the advertising car, the USL’s are more prominent for starters, hub caps, the large letter GT500 rear plate, If it is, Ive never seen this picture before.

SOMEBODY cropped that image to appear as a photo.
It was on the cover of the 1967 Car & Driver Yearbook
