It was restored again several years ago. C. Haubiel had this car at the show.
This car actually sold at the show and the new owner is expecting delivery today. When I took delivery of the car in 2012 it appeared to be unrestored but it actually had a full chassis restoration off the body as well as many cosmetic items restored so the then owner decided to fully restore it. It was scheduled to be in the 2015 LS6 Showcase but sadly the owner died the morning of the show. I was notified by his wife during the driver's meeting and the showcase was then dedicated to him. I was thrilled to finally have it back here and sent photos of the show to his widow yesterday. He was a great guy.
