Feldmen (Feldman?) was very close to the Boston parts distrubution warehouse. It was there that I saw what a poorly done tow job could do to an avanti. It was also there that I saw a jack-up-in-the-rear Lark. The tiklt was done by a 4x4 jambed between the axle and the frame.
Viskik Bos was in the Milton / Roselindale area, near the home of the greatly-missed SheldonHenderson. Seconf-generation brothers Lenny and Martin (?) did the work. he latter taught be about brass nuts in at exhaust manifolds and when I tld lenny that I needed a certain part, he went,"Hmmm, That's a 1743819, walked along a corridor, reached behind a box on the top shwel and tossed me one. No charge.
Side note Lenny imported a London Bus. When he told a freind, the friend asked, "How much profit did you make on the shipping?"
Lenny had no idea what the frind was talkig about. The friend said, "The bus is a big box. You should have contacted a broker, who would have filled it with small packages for his customers and you and him would have maade a enough to ship the bus and split a small profit."
IOIRC, Lenny did that on the second bus and did make a profit.
All were nice guys

I started using Visnick after I met Sheldon. It was near him and maybe a bit closer to where I lived, too. (Waltham and where you visited me, then in Brighton, in a flat in Ralph Holmes house.)
Lenny also had a model shop - mostly trains and cars. IIRC.
I expect that you or I could find out during a visit to Beantown.

I bought that 1961 Lark Skytop hardtop and kept it for MANY years. I sold it to another life SDC member. I do not presently know the whereabouts of the car. Besides the Skytop, it was well equipped with 259 V-8, AT, ps, pb, etc.

I wonder what the suggested list prices were for that car. With no window stickers until 1959, I'm curious what kind of 'deal' he got.

Well, he traded in the "old" green '51 LC and got $2100 for it. I remember him HATING that green car because the starter would cut out before the car started. When the '52s came out, they had the new "follow thru" starter that keep on turning until the car started. Actually, he went to the dealer to get on of those starters put on and they gave him what he considered to be such a good trade in, he bought the '52.

There is a fellow here in Richmond that has a '50 Champion 4 door that came from Bogue. I will look tonight to see if I have a picture of the dealer emblem. By the way, the car is for sale.
