I don't know the story on this one, it's been hidden away for 20 years or so. The Marsha deuce was also neat because her best friend also purchased a deuce new - a FG one! They used to park together at the meat packing plant in IA.

Only 2 of the 3 are known, the fathom blue one went to MD in the late '70's and then went cold.

I got a call yesterday from a good friend that I trade and sell back and forth with, and HE is the NEW proud owner. He wamts me to see the car on Wednesday of this week. It is what everyone here says----one owner, &quot;trailer find&quot; original drivetrain, etc. My friend told me the car was re-painted once in the '80s. It had been hidden for quite some time and he knew about the car the whole time. Timing is everything in our hobby, and the stars were in align for him. Believe it or not, he has a collection of cars that are not un-like this one............original, GOOD CARS. I will give you all an update after I see it, but it seems like the &quot;cat is already out of the bag!&quot;

Reminds me of that '85 Iroc pulled out of a container with 4 miles on it.

Any pics of that IROC after it was washed? Or did they just put it away as-is?
