Re: Real?
Should have realized emotions would be high on a car like this out in the open. I must have missed the Motown drama thread. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
Too bad the owner (new?) wants to remain private. I bet it's a great story, but you have to respect his privacy. Rich

Re: Real?
The late Tom Billigen shared photos of this car with me back then.
Congrats to the new owner for acquiring it and respecting it better.

Re: Real?
Rumor is that the car was not sold, but that the "then current" owner was having it restored. At least that's what the folks at the house told me when I stopped to check it out years ago, only to find it gone.
Since that day back in 2005 or 2006(???) there's been no signs of the car anywhere to my knowledge. Blair

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: William</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Yes, real but the pictures are 10+ years old and the car has been moved. Was in WI, visible from the road so everyone knew about it. All the usual suspects made a play for it, not sold far as I know. </div></div> sort of reminds me of the white 70 GSX in brookfield wi that sat outside. I was one of many to put a note. Had old race letters on the quarters. I had heard the guy used to come to the door with a gun. Car has been gone awhile.
