Hello, Roadster fans - Looking for an old 67 friend

Post by der Heilerin »

Hello- New to this forum - which looks to be a broad wealth of information on these wonderful cars.

I owned a very interesting ‘67 1600 for ten unforgettable years after college. Ten years of sunburns, hearing the sound driving through tunnels of trees, the rasp of the exhaust winding through the gears. That little car never met me down, and I was able to return the favor with regular cleaning and maintenance.

Though I needed to sell the car years ago, I’d like to return to owning an roadster again. I am looking for that old friend, hoping to find chassis 09671, which was sold in 2000. It was light blue metallic with black interior. Let me know if this may be familiar to you!

In the meantime, I’ll enjoy learning more about these special cars, and even the 67.5 cars which have caught my interest.

Thanks for this resource and for reading.

I tried a search in the registry.... but for some reason my login wasn't working there?

There's a link at the top of the page to the registry if you want to give it a try or someone might be able to do a quick search to see if it's in there.
welcome aboard and best of luck reuniting with your old car or finding a suitable replacement!

Found me.
It's been a while since I've logged on here.
Shameful behavior from a roadster fan.
The little blue beast is still out there putting on the miles and the smiles. Luckily the only parts she's needed were tires.
I shouldn't have said that out loud!
