VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Delivered on Christmas Day 1947 to Florence A . Plenty of Hackensack, NJ. Car was paid for on December 3, 1947 Car has a few early 22nd features and some leftover 21st parts.
Owen Dyneto bought it in 1975. Current owner wanted to buy it 1997 but GTO55 came u
with the money first. I was able to buy it from GTO55 in 215. Much mechanical work was done by Owen Dyneto and GTO 55 gave it it's third paint job the previous repaint was failing.




Suspension overhauled in 216.




A valve job done for me after purchase revealed a number of cracks in the block and valve seats that had been cut many times. Owen replaced the odometer, we suspect the mileage has gone around twice. Car is receiving a rebuilt engine very shortly.








"Planned use"is to drive it!
