Re: doees anyone know this car?
No love on the link but is that Lot S159, the black one?
If so I was reading the listing details this morning and couldn't help but notice a couple things. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Re: doees anyone know this car?
----Former owner just a rich "car dealer" guy who wanted a "black" collection. I think he found out later that he could make money on the stuff and as quick as he got involved in the hobby jumped back out. Not sorry to see him go as he failed to pay me a promised finders fee once!!!.....Bill S

Re: doees anyone know this car?
I couldn't help but notice the similarities also specifically the differences of the description wording when comparing it to the LS6 Coupe Lot ZF196 restored by the same group...original/correct etc.

Re: doees anyone know this car?
I just cannot understand why #1) Customers pay good money to have a car restored and then they are not restored correctly and #2) why expert restoration shops skimp on the simplest of items. They must have gotten a truckload deal on the master cylinders as I see them on almost every one of their restorations. For about $300 they could have a perfectly restored #409 master cylinder. JenJac does some beautiful restorations but seem to miss some of the simplest items on the list to make correct and perfect and if this car is real there is NO reason to cut corners.

Re: doees anyone know this car?
Why does a car like this have a Hurst shifter in it? At least get the adapter to put a factory handle on it.
