1970 Newport ‘vert near Montreal

Not mine. Newport convertible for sale in Quebec. Seller seems helpful and responded quickly to my inquiry. He is asking CAD15k or about USD11k.

Few options (L31, P31, B51, R13 — that’s it from the tag). No A/C if that matters. Black bench interior seems original and in good condition. Red repaint of EF8 car. Originally 383-2, apparently upgraded to 4-barrels and dual-snorkel…

C-bodies At The Lake (CATL): A caravan from Rockford to Milwaukee, Sept. 7

Inspired by BBTR (now in its fourth edition), this one-day road trip is the first C-body “event” (involving more than just a couple of cars) that I am co-organizing. The choice of Milwaukee was made obvious to me by @1978 NYB‘s reportage of the Pabst brewery.
