    I had planned to go to the auction (actually about 30 miles away), but got too busy. I didn't know the car, but it belonged to a club member here who passed away recently. I'm sure the "grapevine" will let me know what it sold for and I'll pass it on.

    Looked good in the pictures.

        Yes; doesn't look all that bad...even without a BHD! 'Hope it went to a good home. Let us know, Dick. BP
        We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

            Dad, Mike and 'Doc' were there. This is a car that has been in the area for at least 20 years that I know of, and has had about three owners in that time. Looked pretty good last time I saw it, but that was 20 years ago!!! The pictures make it look a bunch better then it really is these days- as described to me anyway. I believe Dad said it sold for about $1300~ to a dealer up that way.
            Dad's exact words were- "It's a 75 footer, Dave"

            The PO had two Provincial parts cars as well...
