Got these pictures yesterday of friend Ernie Stoltzfus' '62 Daytona Convertible survivor, bought from the original owner's family. It's a bare-bones 259 4-spd. Below is from friend Jim Sinclair:
"Here are pics we took today of Ernie's Daytona Convertible. Today was the opening day of the 2012 Philadelphia Auto Show. Ernie's Daytona was in the 62 Philadelphia Auto Show. The car is a "survivor". Ernie purchased it from the original owner's family. Ernie has hopes of restoring the car and possibly someday have the original dealer, Keenan Motors,(now a high end Mercedes Store), display the car once again at the Philly Show."
Don't let the wrinkly rear window fool you. The first time I saw this car was at Lancaster '08 and it took my breath away!
Thanks to Jim and Ernie for the chance to give you all a look. BTW- before you ask, AFAIK, it's NOT for sale at this time
