VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Bought the car in late november from George Normand of Wimberley, TX who bought it from the estate of Samuel J Alfano of Houston, TX in 1983. "Sammy" was a recording artist promoter who worked for a number of record companies before opening his own business doing the same. I haven't yet been ablemto get details of who owned the car previous to "Sammy" but am trying to run down title history (not an easy thing in Texas)
