Yep. Lives about 5 houses down from me. Seems like a real nice guy. Probably gonna stop by for GTG this weekend. I haven't seen the car up close as it is almost always in his garage.

not sure how this can be a OG paint 68

A 68 doesn't have the vented deck lid, and the gas lid opens from the outside on a 68 unlike this one.
Correct me if I am wrong but a 69 also has a solid decklid. 69 was the 1st year of the glove box release gas lid.

I think its a 69 with a later decklid.

I stand corrected, it looks like it has the gas lid opening from the outside. Probably just a vert deck lid or a later model one.
