I joined FCBO in January 2012. Many posts later, I still have not started a thread devoted to my first C-body: Poppy, the ER6 G-code 1970 Polara convertible that I bought from the second owner in March 2018 and had on the road again, for the first time in 32 years, two months later.
When the car first surfaced on FCBO in summer 2014, it had 31,208 miles on the odometer and a $200k asking price (yes, 2-0-0 the seller was a really nice person but received poor advice early on). That was still the mileage when I bought it (for way, way, WAY less!) 3.5 years later after many more threads on this board and individual discussions with @polara71
Yesterday was Memorial Day, so here is a photo that I took last fall of the car with an American flag in the background. More photos are in Poppy's garage.
