Ahhhh.......the doubting Thomas's......
I wouldn't have posted my notice about this car if I didn't know it is
what he says it is, I've actually seen the car about 3 times over the years.
Maintained to new condition, protected, and the mileage correct. When I
first saw it, it had circa 12,000 miles on it and that was when it was 20
yrs. old. I inquired about buying it and he said he didn't know, but was
inclined to hold it for the time being. I later asked again and he said he
had decoded to some day give it to his Son. He did not drive it on any
regular basis.
NOTE his statement "restoration performed more from lack of use than
miles". He probably didn't even need to restore it from what I saw both with
the car and the kind of guy he is. I'll guarantee you it's a concourse
trophy winner. And yeah, he needs to post more pics, but I think that he just
knows what he has. Take a look at his home in the background. This not a
guy who cuts corners for lack of money.
I think that's the old Bill Thomas 4 carb.conversion kit that he did, not
long after he bought it new. I just remembered sonething else, He told me
he pulled the carpets and sealed the floorboards when new too.
I would guess the guy is in his 80's by now.
