Don't want to hi-jack here.....But.. this is from Stinn...Pretty much a "in the loop" dealer back in 69..

I called the Stinn dealership back in the early 90's after finding my car came from Stinn's. I always asked for the finance dept when checking dealers for paperwork. The people started questioning me pretty hard on what my business was and then told me the dealership was closing and nothing was available. I was told later the Feds had come in and shut Ed down to to gambling and embezelment.

Yes this is pretty much accurate information. I know the woman who now lives in his old home which is also in the city where the dealership was. She stated that he and his wife just "vanished" from the home and it went into foreclosure which is when she purchased it. She stated that the Stinns left all of their personal belongings inside the home, clothing and furniture. She said it was pretty odd.. But I guess he was on the run for a long time and I think later located in Florida. However, he is deceased now. This is probably why the dealership was questioning you hard about the stuff you wanted..
