Hi Brian

I think you will find lots of good history on this car, I will send the advertisements from the last few times it sold.

A recent picture (after the ride height was corrected).



Also, since the motor was previously discussed, we've obtained a couple more pictures of the engine's pad stamp when the car was found in 1993. # CE971700.

Update: We've been in talks with the original selling dealer's son -- this car was reportedly his demonstrator, and he is planning to pay us a visit this fall to examine the car and share his memories of the six months he drove it. Combined with the authentication interview/letter we obtained from the first retail owner, this 18 month research project one is nearly complete...

-Brian

Brian,

My client just recently SOLD her back....to RK.
I am so glad I got the chance to improved her with finding and restoring the correct parts that were taken off of her along the way since Jim Brady owned her. Hope this does not happen to her again.

That's an L78.... not an L89.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Styles</div><div class="ubbcode-body">[quote=DW31S] As a side note: maybe it's just my opinion, but I feel too many people seem to put way too much value in this whole &quot;born with engine&quot; thing. Sure, it's great to find a 40-year old car that <span style="text-decoration: underline">hasn't</span> been thoroughly enjoyed by someone else, but then I'm just as happy to appreciate a beautiful and rare car that's already experienced a fun life. <span style="font-style: italic">...and I guess the same could be said about women. </span> </div></div>

Reminds me of a cartoon, maybe in Playboy years ago, showing a groom carrying his virgin bride across the threshold and she says, &quot;I hate to be touched.&quot;
