Where the heck is Lewiston, CA?
.........just FWIW, and a note of caution: just because a car came from the southwest originally and always lived there doesn't mean the w/seals weren't shot at a young, hot, dry age. Many a southwest car/truck floors are rotted through from rain and moisture over the years. Some very nice looking cars (pics) from that regin have had total floor replacements along the way.......
Bob, I know I have plugged this one before, but it was an original Astra White '64 Wagonaire, Utah car, IIRC. It made the TW cover in 1982, before it got repainted beige. I've just done a mess of floor repairs, documented here. It's got a 259 with WCFB, and a Flightomatic, and a Simmons stainless dual exhaust with glass packs. Sounds sweet. Red vinyl interior. It needs plenty of work, but it's a solid car. The price would be VERY right; I'd like to see it go to a good home. There are quite a few good parts to go with, like a tailgate, etc. You could probably drive it home from my place; it's not like it's a total wreck, you know.
I can't think of anyone here I'd rather see taking this one over.

It was in pretty good shape but tired, the two most pressing finds were front floor pans and a new dash pad. I did it over last winter in my basement. As well as, transmission rebuild, A-arm bushings, weather stripping, headliner, wiring harness, axle bearings and seals, brakes, steering gear....you know the drill
It is a V8 with 3 + OD and a 3:73 out back
This was the worst of it, the rest is a very solid Arizona car.

There's got to be a reason why only nine (9) 1964 South-Bend convertibles were Horizon Green; the lowest production number of any 1964 color on convertibles. BP
I thought the lowest production number was the one-only '64 convertible that was factory ordered in Avanti Gray...

That is correct, Craig.
I should have clarified by stating "of the 1964 'Lark' standard production colors."BP
