Original Selling Dealer

[sixtiesmuscle]

Well Marlin, without the ability to ask Don if Jack is being truthful, we'll never know if there was an official agreement. It seems that the number that were purchased [25-28] and the price paid , $400. per set, would lead one to believe that there wasn't any confusion over why they were being bought. I don't know what the stripes cost in '69, but, you have to figure that $400. was a pretty profitable sale. I happen to agree with you, and, when I finished my Douglas COPO I did it the way most of his were appointed. This, even though a previous title, and a previous owner claimed it had been a "Yenko". What if, however, one showed up with original owner documentation, original paint & stripes, etc. Hypothetical, I know, but an interesting possibility nonetheless.
