------Tim,,,The no.1 GS was sold out of Texas to us at Classic Motors in 1977/8. We restored it with some help from Tom Turnas from Detroit who did the chassis and located the 377 c.i. aluminum small block and the side-draft Weber 58s. Tom worked at the Tech Center during the day. You could stick your whole hand down in one of the barrels of a 58 Weber. We restored it red with red gut because the only person on earth who wanted it at the time was Jerome. Jeromes favorite color was, you guessed it, RED!!! Even then we had to take about twelve cars in trade. I remember a Fly Yellow Daytona flop top was one of them and the maroon low mile 396 roadster that Krughoff ended up with was another.
