This thing cost near $5k in 1969. PW, AM8trk, Super perf axle pack etc. No money left for the nice 15 inch wheelcovers that were available.

This one was near $5k as well, just no money left for G60X15's and rallyes. Not my photo.

I was lucky enough to save up for some used Rallyes when I owned it though.
