All kidding aside, I sincerely wish for you in Buffalo, NY that you really do own RFK's Avanti. We would all be envious!

Not all of us.

At the risk of being too nosey...what leads you to think it's THE RFK's?

Jimmy Hoffa's scalp or Marilyn Monroe's panties in the glovebox?

Seriously, if you contact the JFK museum, they might be able to point you in the right direction.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when George this he was buy Jon Voight (the Actor) car but it was John Voight the local dentist.

That sounds like a bad joke ready to happen: "A priest, a realtor and a tour guide walk into a bar. . ."

the Studebaker driver ducked.

So does he end every conversation with "Remember to spay or neuter Ulysses S. Grant"?

I had the same thought after I posted it By the way, Barker's real name is Robert E. Lee Barker. The joke becomes even more elaborate.

Just had dinner with Bobby Kennedy, Bob Hope & Bob Barker. One is a realtor, Hope is a priest, & Barker is a tour guide!

Didn't hear about Robert Kennedy ever owning an Avanti, but brother Ted could have used a Weasel in 1969.

No excuse for not owning one...there are plenty of weasels in Washington.

[Gunslinger]

OMG!!! I about busted a gut on that! A Weasel! That's dark humor, but so true!

There were (and are) a lot of 'Robert Kennedy's'. I know because I have been seeking the wherabouts of an old friend 'Robert Kennedy' for years.
It is entirely possible that -a- 'Robert Kennedy', not the famous one, once owned this Avanti.

Indeed Jessie, it is no doubt a common name. I worked with a Robert Kennedy about 20 years ago. This Robert Kennedy was proud of his Toyota T100 truck that he owned at the time.

I think the Kennedy family had Chicago ties. I believe they owned the Merchandise Mart at one point.

I believe they still do. William Kennedy Smith was sent here to manage the family's Chicago interests after the rape scandal and his office was/is there.
