The information in the article is incorrect. The original owner of the Ragamuffin is alive and well.Also the vehicle was NOT purchased at Nickey Chevrolet but was purchased new at Fencil-Bogan Chevrolet on Madison St.in Oak Park,Illinois. The owner is my best friend and has been since 1962.

Great pics of the car and I will be sure to share them with him when I see him this week end. Thanks again for the pics. I'm sure he will enjoy them.

Pretty cool, Clement Speed Shop was a couple of blocks away from our old house in Chicago. It must have been long gone by the early 80s.

If you look at this thread over at the 348/409 site it appears there may have been 2 ragamuffin cars - perhaps that is the confusion....?
