Hi Dwight,

 

Shortly after you sent this comment, I saw a 1976 6.9 go to auction on Barrett 
Jackson.  The aerial shots showed a huge sunroof indeed, although my guess is 
that it is a power unit on that car, not a manual slider like mine.  

 

Amazingly enough, that car had only 70K original miles; it had the original 
title: showing it was owned by Doris Day (claimed as a one-owner), and was in 
beautiful condition.  Auction price:  $7,700.

 

There's no accounting for taste.
