Fascinating Landy Charger tale

[Dog427435]

Well, we got the papers. Dick has confirmed what I think most of us already knew... it's genuine . I had no doubt, but I was afraid he'd see something that would keep him from being convinced. What a relief. We're hoping to get copies of all the info Dick's got that he compared the car to. The contract he sent us appears to say that we must restore the car to the way he had it if we display the car with his name on it. I think the first thing we should do is have the Hemi built and in the car. If we have dLi build the motor, it'll be a true Dick Landy Hemi in a Dick Landy car. What do you think? Since Dick apparently wants it restored, hopefully he'll let the information flow. I don't even know if he ran it as a four speed or automatic. The car's had a lot of B&M stickers, so I'm guessing an auto. I bought a new bumper with mounting brackers at Carlisle. I already had a bumper, but not the backets. It'll all have to be acid-dipped. I need a new hood, too. Lots of decisions to make. Keep, sell, restore, drive, show, race, etc. I don't even know if I should put my money into it or let someone else take it on as a project or investment. Any advice?

Check out the pics of Dick checking out the car at Carlisie. Now you can see the elusive accident damage (and the cool can).
