Love those huge fog lights. Was that a factory option?

I don’t recall ever seeing that model. Nice to period color combo. Not that I was even born yet but.

This same model was once parked in my display cabinet. Close by was its team mate the BelAir HT version. A friend of the Mrs liked the convertible and asked to buy it for her Old Man.
I didn't really want to part with the model and the Mrs said that because I had two of the same car, then it was mean of me to not sell the convertible to her friend. So I gave her a price believing this to be more than she would want to pay and the rest would take care of itself.
Well she didn't bat an eyelid at the asking price so I ended up not owning the model any more. Boohoo.
