    This '69 was local to me and "restored" by a friend of my dad.

    It is an attractive car, no question about that, but it just has some things that were not done to original specs like the inside edges of the fenders being painted black instead of body color.

    It's easier to buy black paint then to match that original color well. Some one liked it a lot!

    The black paint is the result of a non-Buick shop doing the work. They do nice work but just are not Buick experts.

    Mecum said there was a build sheet for the 69 stage 1. Sure would like to have seen that!

    I believe all the A bodies are fully painted fenders.
    But black May save some work I guess. I like it.
