VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Sold originally to Ken Kaecker of Scottsdale, AZ. The next two owners were also located in Scottsdale and then two owners lived in California. The car joined the O'Quinn collection in the mid 2's and was purchased from someone associated with the dissolution of the auto collection. Very good older restoration.
