Fear not, Darren. This car was born to run, and will be reborn by Dave, who can't wait to get this car back on the track.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for checking out my NEW "old race car". I would like to thank Doug Perry for hooking me up with this one, he is the go to guy if your looking for these rare cars, especially the history on them. With Doug's "CSI" tactics we virtually knew all the history on this car before we got to the auction , and that was in a matter of days. Thanks again Doug. I would also like to thank the original owner whom we met at the estate auction (2nd owner died), His name is Doug E. ,a great guy and he will obviously be a wealth of knowlege on the car since it remains almost 100% as he built it back in 1970. I will have the car "RACE READY" at next years SCR and hope to have him there to meet everyone and let him take it down the track. He also has video of the car back in the day that I would love to share with all of you , I will see what I can do on that.
Dave

I'm with Darren. I would clean and detail the car, make it run and drive, and leave it as is. This is an unbelievable find!

Awesome! I love that 60's "mod" graphics/lettering style. Totally cool paint scheme on a totally cool car. Can't wait to see this one in the flesh. Congrats!

I'm sure the locals thought you guys were crazy for bidding what you did on that car. I know the conservative mentality of that area all too well... the smile on Dave standing next to the original owner tells the story.
