Hi Mike, Having two Isleros would be something.A unique chance to be able to get at least one in perfect condition.I have been trying to follow the history of #6129 for many years, having spoken with the owner several times since 1991.He indicated that the car had sat for 10 years at that time waiting for restoration.Later calls indicated that it was still waiting.I had not heard anything since the mid-90s, except from the owners friend who was interested in representing it for sale.I tried to contact GM about this car (with the help of an inside source) and spoke to many people in the various design and research departments but no one could find any record of GM having this car. So it remains a mystery to me.The factory info is:It was originally light blue with black interior and had engine #1833.It was completed on 6/19/68 and consigned to the Italian concessionaire, Ferretti (Italcar) in Bologna for delivery to customer Malverdi. Hope this helps, and good luck. Lou Herrin(#6096)
