Cool and all but in the lengthy description/story, nothing seems firm that this car is indeed THE original prototype ragtop?.
Stamped 57 in multiple places seems as close as it gets but are they original stampings, what's the history of this specific car, when did it surface, what state of transformation to a ragtop was it in then, does it have the frame modified by Tucker...etc?.
Could be but like so many cars where the pedigree is a large percentage of the value, if it's not specified, why isn't it?.
Thanks for the link..
