Always wanted one since I first drove one in 1965 at the Riverside Track driving school. I tried for years to buy a 289 one and no one woould sell meone back then. They had 428 ones in the car lots in Los Angles and I drove some of them but still wanted the 289. Then after health problems I couldn't afford one until I decided to build one. Still wish I could get an original 289 and am still bugging a young guy here that has one but he isn't interested in selling at all. So I will just enjoy my replica and I enjoy the people that I meet that have both originals and replicas. Of course when I am around the originals I kind of slink in and hide my replica in the back.
