Next known owner is Frank Jurin of Santa Rosa CA who advertised it for sale in 10/72 for $6,000, didn't sell. For sale again in '74. Acquired by Bob Epstein, Piedmont CA who sold in '75 Car now has Chrome wires dyed (Blk) int and flares and Boss 302 asking $14,000. End of known ownership. Presumably your guy bought it from Epstein and put it away.

Kurtmart,
Thanks so much. That was the history I was hoping to uncover. I never cease to be amazed by the twisting and frequently obscure paths these cars take as they move forward in time.
Each one is an epic story in itself. Thanks again for shedding additional light on the route this particular car took.
Ed

This has been a very interesting thread to follow.
"Barn finds" still do exist.

Yes, it's been an interesting thread, thanks Kurtmart. What info do you have on CSX 2346?
ES - I can start another thread if you would like, don't think this is a hijack as it pertains to same type of request.
A-Snake - the purchase price was merely my speculation, not based on actual. Sorry, should have clarified that.
I have other pictures if interested, let me know. |

PurpleVenom,
I don't have a problem. Seems to be the same type of story/issue to me. I usually don't get real proprietary about thread real estate. Usually makes better threads for the other members.
Ed

Thanks Ed, some folks are touchy about that. A couple more:
Check out the factory 'Cobra' radio
A-Snake - assume you have been here?
