Bill, thanks for the clarification. It's a very cool car, and I'd love to own it, but it irritates me when people distort the truth. By way, I actually LIVE in Bolingbrook, IL, so your comment about that auction really surprised me!
What I find amusing is that so many investors seemed to have just got involved in the hobby 10-15 years ago, where folks like me (and others) actually grew up with these cars, drove them, street raced them, repainted them, etc., long before they were considered as valuable as a Picasso painting. I read stories all the time about how an owner claims a certain "ultra rare car" was babied its whole life, driven by a little old lady, never saw rain, etc. Then I see the exact same car was advertised in a 1987 Hemmings Motor News, and it was drag raced, thrashed, blown up, repainted, rebuilt, and was restored in 1985. Today, due to aging, it appears to be original. Amazing how some of these cars seem to get a new lease on life.
Just pay no attention to anything that may have occurred before about 1988.
