Is that the car that "Motown Madman" was going to get, no matter what? Ride in with 40 bikers to make him sell?

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.

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.

Rumor is that the car was not sold, but that the &quot;then current&quot; 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.
