Ross had a 70 Crown coupe?

[Ross Klein <tailfins@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pete,

I had mentioned the '70 Crown coupe a while back. I had the car about 20
years ago, it was purchased at a used car auction for very little $$$. I
think it had about 45K, was dark grey with a black top and black interior,
very clean and rather well equipped. I liked the size (huge!) and the ride,
but wasn't too wild about the styling. While the car was at the repair shop
having the radiator fixed, another customer became interested and made "an
offer I couldn't refuse", so I sold it to him. I haven't seen another one
since then. I should add that I had no idea then how rare this car was.

Regretfully,

Ross Klein
