----I first met Bob Fuller around 1969-70. We went to his house to look at the black LS6. Bob was not a real likeable guy. He invited us out there and then turned nasty when we got there. We left without the car. Later I bought a 66 red Hemi Satelite from Jerome Shinkay and found out later that he bought it from Fuller. A year or so later my boss Richard B was sponsoring an auction and I reluctantly put the Hemi up for sale as I had house payments to make. Bob ended up trading me a 70 454 Corvette for it. Thinking it was a good deal at the time I didn't look the car over too well and later found it had a one piece Eckler's nose on it. My bad, but that was the end of doing business with Bob!......Bill S

That is probably why everyone thinks this car is original paint, because why would anyone think differently?
