My point is that it's under the car and on top of the gas tank. The majority of it is not visible. What's the big deal?

Is that Diego's old car?

Not Diegos, I think this is/was owned by Tom Lembeck of Chicago.

I've used 3 of the famous gas tank pads! None better.

I just got a link today from my buddy Ron McHugh on a special collection at this year's MCACN. At the risk of someone thinking I'm "hijacking" this thread, please let me finish----the link was to the "Documented W-30 Convertible 4-Speeds" to be shown together this coming November. I can only imagine such a showing!!! Ron's car will be in attendance along with the car formerly belonging to Lee Pearl, and several others including at least one unrestored original. Will the car discussed in this thread be at that show? I certainly would think that if Stefano is associated with it, the documentation has to be bullet-proof. Stefano's reputation, as far as I know, is extremely reliable and well respected in this hobby. I have yet to hear anything to the contrary regarding him, his cars, and/or his descriptions of the cars he has to offer. This car would seem to be a "shoe-in" for the special collection should the new owner be interested in displaying his recently acquired purchase. Or, perhaps Stefano could show the car on the new owner's behalf if he/she decides to remain anonymous.
I was just telling my wife today about this year's show and this GREAT collection of amazing Oldsmobiles......Once again, however, the show falls on the same weekend as our (my wife and myself) annual Caribbean Cruise. I have explained in several other threads that my wife is ABSOLUTELY the BEST, and she is SO GOOD about my "Muscle Car Habit", that I couldn't bring myself to ask her to change our yearly tropical vacation so that I may attend yet another car event.
I would be interested in knowing the production stats regarding the car discussed here. I'm betting it to be a "1 of 1". The Azure Blue is quite rare in itself, and combining it with the W-30 package AND the convertible, AND the 4-speed has to make it pretty special.
What a car!!!

Dave,

Thanks for the "Kind" words.

This W-30 is one of the 96 built. The car and the owner have been invited to the W-Machine display at MCACN.

This W-30 is back on the market.

The buyer changed his mind.
