Location: North Australia | I wish we got this show in Australia. Dennis is a bit odd, but his enthusiasm is unmistakable.
This video shows a 1961 NY wagon and a 1956 NY convertible, both owned by a Gentleman named John Cote.
I met John briefly in 2015 at Carlisle on the Thursday. He was setting up his display in the dealership building, showcasing his impressive 56 Adventurer convertible pace car.
He was very nice to me, and considering he was busy, I appreciated him taking the time to stop and talk (and answer my many questions!). Very Decent Guy, and obviously very passionate about FL cars.
Steve.

Location: Branson, MO | Speaking of Adventurers, spcifically the 1956 Adventurers, they were available in six different color combinations: White/Gold, Gold/White, Black/Gold, Gold/Black, and here's the kicker - Black/White and White/Black! Not very many people are aware of the black and white combos.
