Neat how the Shop Order # 10324 of his wife's car is consecutive w/ Harley Earl's own SO # 10323 factory custom '63 Roadster we looked at here recently and sold for 1.5 at the Oct. 2013 Mecum sale, link below.
Whoever bought it may be a likely buyer for this one too, nice bookends for any collection also cool if the two cars end up back together again!

----Ill understand if you guys dont believe me, but I saw both these cars in the Earls driveway in 1964 or 65 while in Palm Beach during spring vacation. The Earls lived on the ocean side of the road (kind of rare back then) and had a circular driveway. Both cars were in the driveway pointing at each other. I had a girlfriend with me in a rented mustang convertable and she got mad at me when I stopped to eyeball the two cars. Then I got out and was attempting to get a closer look when thier lawn guy chased me away. I will never forget that day, even when the dementia sets in!!!!!
----As an aside, both cars had Dayton wire wheels at that time, as did many styling cars back then. I told Bob Gold, when he was restoring the blue car, that he chose the wrong wheels (knock-offs) but he decided to keep them on the roadster anyway.......Bill S

LOL!

He must have sat as his desk and banged both the work orders out in one sitting.

Naturally, he took care of <span style="text-decoration: underline">his</span> car first...
