Location: Lubbock, TX | Missing the body tag entirely, missing the brake booster and master cylinder, missing the driver's side inner fender panel access panel, smashed radiator tank, 1962 horn button emblem, no spare tire hold down components, etc... Also the undercarriage appears to show older undercoating. So I'm not sure where the $250k was spent, but that car is not only undriveable with the missing brake components, but the website homepage for the company gives an announcement that they are closed for good and are no longer in business.
Not sure what to make of it all.

The Gosford guys bought it and were operating a museum seemingly to get around taxation rules instead of just being a dealership, the ATO got involved and the next thing wsa the entire inventory was auctioned years ago. The website is still alive but nothing was updated after the auction took place. |
