Waking up in the Carolina mountains, today I take delivery and become the caretaker of this price of history. Pics to follow.

Is that a Freudian Slip? Or, did you really mean it?

In any case, enjoy!

I think he meant "piece"..... I'm still waiting for the pictures.

So is this an unrestored original car? I look forward to pictures.

Infamous iPhone auto correct. Yes piece.

Can't wait to see those pics! Do you have many photos from before the freshening / restoration (mentioned in your registry entry) in the 1990s?

I have found that the car did indeed go through a painstaking restore in 1991. The interior is immaculate, some patina and paint cracking, and Orange peel on front fenders in spots.
She fires right up and purrs like a kitten.

Got in about 5 am this morning after a very long drive. It is raining today, so I will not be unloading today.

While we were loading, the owner received to phone calls wanting the car, he passed on my information to them and I have Carol Packard wanting the car for the National Museum in Warren, and Richard Rawlings (Gas Monkey) is interested for a Client ill name after our conversations but high profile. Hard decision, send the car to Museum for public, or private collection..

In the interim, here are some pics.
