Congrats Steve! Shows how this site and group really works together to find these rare treasures. I find the car having original A/C to be mind boggling and now wonder how many others where passed up or overlooked for being A/C cars.
Really cool! Good Luck and have fun!

I don't know that I can add anything to this thread that hasn't been said already.

Cool find Steve, it ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT BE GOING TO A BETTER HOME THAN THE ONE IN WARM, SUNNY LAS VEGAS JUST OFF THE STRIP.

Jeff................kudos to you for all the hard work finding it and assisting Steve with the purchase. I like many others here know that it had to be hard keeping your mouth shut for so long. Finding such a great car and not sharing it with the world. But we all know the reason why.

I am also sure that Brian will do a bang-up job restoring it. His shop does absolutely beautiful work as everyone here already knows.

Again.............Steve...........CONGRATULATIONS ! ! ! ! ! !

Maybe the next time we're in town............we can swing by and see the collection again. The daughter just got back from there last weekend. She and her husband were there for a week and ready to go back ! ! !

Had to come back and look at the pics again...tooooo much!!!.

Astock is right, these hoods are truly deadly...even finding an original one of these alone would've been a great find!.

Great to see the Work Order pics and surely an interesting read, but would it be best to maybe delete them from this thread...just thinking of the crooksters and their replica paperwork also since these were built from a SB cars etc how these are really THE all important docs!?.

I was thinking the same thing, Pete. That's why I was a bit reluctant to post the pics of the Dana doc's. Just wanted to hush the naysayers, but now I think I'll ask Rob to doctor a couple of my earlier posts.
