I am looking for a '69 with VIN 119 1078060. Originally white with red interior.
It might have lived in Colorado Springs in early '70s
If the car still exists, I have original paperwork for it if you want it.

Just FYI looks like you have one too many numbers in that VIN, should only be 9

It looks like the they ran out of 6 digit VINs in May, '69 so that puts this one in June.
The paperwork that I have seems to be from when the car was purchased from G.BERNHARDT in Heidelberg on July 21, 1969.
When I bought my '66 in 2004, these papers were intermingled with a lot of
receipts that came with the '66. Same owner of both cars.
I have no use for the '69 receipts-----I just can't bear to throw anything away.

My 69 VIN is in the high 9's, built some time in May. The ones built in June and July had 7 digit VINs (after the 119)
