As far as white, black stripe & top with white interior I really wouldn't think that was odd. Being a big block convertible would make it a very rare car.
My brothers car was also an indiana car, destroyed by a tornado in 1974 or 75 that went just north of Mt. Comfort Indiana.
lol I'm in Valparaiso, and yes, the avatar is my car. My uncle wanted it to be B5 blue with a white stripe, so it looks like they spray painted it, . I remember it before he did that to it though, and it was white with a black stripe.
