these had a 4-speed transmission. Of those 15, only six were
equipped with factory air. Of those six, this is the only one with
this color combination. This car was delivered new to Patterson
Buick Inc. in Mount Airy, NC, in 1972. Per the Window Sticker, it
was built in Flint, MI. The restoration was done in Florida around
2005-06. A binder of documentation is included with the car.
