Hemmings Motor News, January 1980
This is 2286 again. Mr. Soprano, owner of Motor Classics, acquired the car around Aug/Sep/Oct 1979 for a then bargain (though certainly an outrageous sum of money for the time) price, which was somewhere around $80k to $90k. Was probably already a 6-figure car by late 1978.
Sources indicate that he had the car up for sale for awhile. He never disclosed his price in print, but revealed it to serious inquirers. From Nov 79 thru Mid 80 the price was $150k.
The car wasn't sold until 1982, and it is likely that the price paid was a good deal more than what he had been asking 2 years prior.

Hemmings Motor News, June 1981
Car was being offered for $165k at some point in 1979, more than what a Daytona would go for then. Probably the weirdest cobra ever made.

Another new toy !! Newbomb Turk's 1956 Pie Wagon
This 1956 Chevrolet sedan delivery was mildly hot rodded in the 1970's, with a 327 and automatic transmission, and painted orange. It was placed for sale in the front yard, and purchased by Columbia Pictures in 1979 for an upcoming movie, "Hollywood Knights". Graphics were added to the side panels, and rear door hatch, transforming into the main character's car, Newbomb Turk's Pie Wagon, featuring Robert Wuhl. After the filming was completed, selected movie theater owners were entered in a raffle, and the winner won this vehicle, residing in the Massachusets area. After 15 years, the car was sold locally to a "Chevy" parts guru. He removed the body, cleaning / sand blasting the frame, rebuilding the suspension, and transplanting in a new crate 350 with a muncie 4 speed. The exterior of the car, and interior of the car was left in the same condition that it has when it appeared in the movie. Great car.
