Do you think B-J is finally understanding that having cars with questionable provenence isn't in their best interest? From this morning's issue of the Arizona Republic...

And where have we heard this name before when it comes to questionable cars?

"The car was restored in Holly's hometown of Lubbock, Texas, in 1997. The seller is Bill Clement."

One time I called him on a 57 4 door wagon he had for sale. The price had doubled. He said "It must be priced to low cause I've had too many calls on it". Needless to say I wasn't sucked in.


I used to get his catalogues just to see what I needed to be buying at swap meets, and for the pictures.

I didn't use those prices as a guide though.

Re: B-J Refusing to Auction 'Buddy Holly' 58 Impal
 

Same guy that created the WZ '61SS 409, probably the most bogus '61SS ever.
