That's an unusual Newport. Another western car in gret condition.

Sure is. I have seen a convertible with the woodgrain but not the hardtop. Wish there were more pics.
The body color is what makes this unique to me.........with the woodgrain

Ya, I saw the one on the rollback.
If I was a slab guy I think I'd need one of those

Very unusual in that color, I'm not sure I'd want to see that in my driveway for too long. The vert is a better color combo for the woodgrain but that thing sure is rusty for 12.5, I don't care how many they made!

Sportgrain package.
That is the first green one i've seen. I remember the red convertible that was for sale and have seen gold, yellow and even owned a white one. No real value in them, maybe just to odd for most tastes.
I started to restore mine but figured out that with body and paint + new wood grain I would be upside down in it. Ended up traiding before completeing it. Nice cars though.

I think the body design is perfect for the woodgrain. I liked them when they were new and still like them now.

Didn't one of those get destroyed in the movie "Planes, Trains & automobiles"?

I like that Success Sale turquoise special. The 2-tone interior is cool.

yeah well, that 'vert looks even worse in person.........a basic driver, priced way high as he thinks the woodgrain makes it very desireable

now tell me, why would you buy another engine and rebuild that instead of rebuilding the oen that was in the car?
