I was the third owner and owned it for at least 10 years. I had it on the cover of Musclecar Review in 1990.

<span style="font-style: italic">&quot;...A feature article on this car by Super Chevy in the January 1990 issue states that there were two subsequent owners until its acquisition by Warren Friedrich, who was the owner at the time of the publication...&quot;</span>

So Friedrich was the name you were going by then Charley, er I mean Warren?.

Wow, some cool cars! Not to take anything away from Phil's collection, but this 58 Eldorado Biarritz ragtop looks incredible, 2010 Cadillac-LaSalle Club Grand National Best in Show Winner, estimated to bring $250K-$300K.

Here's the 70 W-30 4-speed convertible.

There's a mistake in the description, it says it has four-wheel independent suspension. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Because the article stated that it originally came with red stripes but the guy to restored it used white stripes.
