This particular example has had three owners since it was sold new in Scottsdale, Arizona in June of 1971. The first owner was Axel Wars who had the delivering dealer install its vinyl top. The exterior of the car is Tunis Beige Metallic paint with a Chocolate Brown leather interior. It remained in his care for 23 years during which it accumulated 24,000 miles. The next owner was John Hopfenbeck of the Bay Area who acquired it in 1994. The current owner purchased the car in 1996. Since then, 21,000 miles have been added to the odometer.
