I saw this car in person last summer at the Hemming’s Concours show in VT. This should get interesting very quickly. The owner claimed the car was restored by Legendary Motors in Canada but inspected and certified by SCW.

I see the CKT now. Doesn't this prove it's real or can protecto's be falsified this well.

Been discussed here before. Car was at Vettefest last year for the L78 nova display. Also was at the Nova Nats 2 years ago in Gettysburg. I believe Dave Frendel owned the car then and/or still does.

I remember the discussion but I don't remember seeing the POP. Does the POP look legit?
