I am told that he raced the car on a paved oval for a few years?? It also had 4.56 gears installed at the dealer when it was new, They are date code for the car original GM gears, The 4.10's are gone though. The car had 50 miles on it by the time the dealer sold it. Alot of test drives going on!! Invoise price on the car was a wopping $4930.00. We got all the GMAC paper work and service reciepts. We have the original HUMPHREY Diecast emblem for the rear panel but it is pitted, Any possibility of finding a nice one in your area!!
Here is an update on the L89 since Carl S. & his brother owned it, they never finished the restoration in 2004 & sold it to the person I bought it from. The person I bought it from & Carl had a disagreement & Carl to this day still has the paper work that he mentions. I have talked to Carl on several occasions in the past & he agreed to let me have the paper work but never followed thru. Around 2020, I got to meet Carl & his brother at Spring Carlisle in PA & again we talked about the paper work but as of today, he still has it.

would it be worth it to buy the paperwork from him? would it increase the cars value. buyers love documents, not that its for sale but you never know.

The car just sold at Mecum for $363K so I doubt it makes a difference now, I was only trying to reunite the documents with the car.
