Two over the years, one was a very nicely finished car, the other had rough welds on the frame that scared the heck out of me as the owner was driving the car and had done so for over 2,000 miles (in West Palm Beach, Florida). Come to think of it, reminds me of a triple white FFR I bought two years ago for 15K (also from Florida, go figure), got it off the transport truck,went to get out and tripped, pulled the whole upper steering shaft out with the wheel I grabbed to stop my fall. Just an accident waiting to happen. I pulled the body and sold it as an unfinished restoration project to a dealer in south NJ with full disclosure and a list of things that required work before he put the body back on. Happy to just get my money back out of it. Sorry, I rambled a bit.....
What have you got on your hands?
