THIS MEANS THE CAR WAS BUILT WITH A GREEN EXTERIOR, GREEN SEATS, DASH, CONSOLE AND GREEN CARPETS WITH MATCHING HUB CAPS. THIS IS THE ONLY ONE I HAVE COME ACROSS. A FEW MONTHS AGO I HAD A BLUE CODE AND HAVE SEEN RED, BLACK AND GOLD ONES BEFORE BUT THIS IS THE ONLY GREEN ONE I HAVE EVER SEEN. THIS ONE IS PRETTY MUCH ALL ORIGINAL. THE RADIO WAS CHANGED BUT THE ORIGINAL RADIO AND 8 TRACK TAPE PLAYER WERE RETAINED AND COMES WITH THIS CAR. ORIGINALLY FROM PENNSYLVANIA BUT KEPT IN FLORIDA FOR A WINTER CAR. CAR WAS ACQUIRED FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER A COUPLE YEARS AGO. HAS THE ORIGINAL TOP IN GOOD CONDITION BUT DOES SHOW IT'S AGE AND THE PLASTIC WINDOWS ARE PRETTY CLEAR. THE CAR HAS A GOOD EXTERIOR WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE HOOD WHERE YOU CAN SEE FROM MANY CLEANING, WAXING AND BUFFING THE PAINT HAS WORN THIN. HAS HAND PAINTED PIN STRIPES DONE BY THE FAMOUS ARTIST LARRY KODOWICH. THERE ARE OF COURSE SOME VERY MINOR IMPERFECTIONS THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT ON A CAR OF THIS AGE THAT IS IN PRETTY MUCH ORIGINAL CONDITION. HAS VERY GOOD CHROME TRIM. VERY GOOD SET OF RADIAL TIRES. RUNS EXCEPTIONALLY WELL AND HAS A GOOD TIGHT FEEL GOING DOWN THE ROAD. NO SHAKES OR SHIMMIES. THIS IS A RARE ROADSTER AND COMES WITH BOTH TOPS. IT IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION ESPECIALLY FOR ITS AGE. LOTS OF COMPLEMENTS WERE EVER I GO WITH IT. THERE ARE A LOT OF 450'S OUT THERE BUT THIS IS A RARE ONE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY IT WOULD BE HARD TO FIND A NICER ONE THAT IS AS ORIGINAL AS THIS ONE IS. HAS ANTIQUE AND COLLECTIBLE STATUS.
