The picture in your avatar is a '65 that was for sale in the Classifieds. Looked like a good deal, I couldn't figure out why it was for sale for so long...

I think they are lovely. 5 lug wheels are cooler than 4.

If it's complete and stock, you'll like the dual carbs and the performance they give the engine. You'll like the simple yet elegant trim on the interior. You'll like the room in the back when you fold the seat back down. You'll like driving a car that makes people stop and take a second look. You'll like people telling you they used to have one and they miss it and you'll wonder why they got rid of it if they liked it so much.

that's you ! I was looking at it since last year. I had to meet the owner ( Julian ) during my trip to Ca begin Feb, but I won't make it before Apr !

Looked like a good deal. In the mean time, I found an other 1500S Squareback in Europe.
How does it drive ?

I know I got rid of my old 70 Square right after I finally got my Notch. :D I really did miss my Square too, as it didn't need anything but driven. :shock: Oh well, it went to a great place, as I gave it to my dad for a birthday present. 8)

It's good that it was kept in the family.
