That white convertible, according to the source website, was selling for $184,000! Don’t know how recent the ad was.
This was in the 80’s. Last time I saw the car, restoring it would have meant creating it new from the ground up. His dad had a whole bunch of other cars that he was going to “get around to” working on in the driveway. He had to build a privacy fence around his drive way because of complaints to the city.
