Yeah? How so?
It was just such a nice driver. The 413 ran smooth as glass, was rust free, had the third seat that the grandkids loved and just looked cool aa hell. For me though I enjoy the thrill of the hunt so it's out with the old before in with the new.

Yeah, the 69 had rust and always had a little musty smell I could never get out.

25 years ago my dad told me of a 1970 Polara wagon in a local town that was for sale. Being a 70 and white I had little interest. I eventually went over, it was pushed back in the yard and not for sale. Parked under pine trees, the for sale sign on the seat the owner now was gonna keep it. A low optioned 383-2 car with a green interior I moved on . A few years later it was parked in a parking lot, road side with a for sale sign. Now with cancer in a few spots including the tire well and the interior was trashed I wasn't willing to spend the thousand dollars. Another year later it showed up at a local cruise, black primered, red pin striping, skulls hanging from the mirror and green lights inside. About a year later I heard it was for sale again not far away for 2500. I haven't heard about it in a long time since.
I guess all I'm saying is, get the when you see them and yes Wyatt, 15 years earlier would have been optimum for you. They were still around.
