Atlantic city

["Nicholas De Cresce" <ndcnyc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, Allan
I just called the car show.  The number of the 1968 Imp was SA750A and they
have no info on this car.  This means either the car was not sold at auction
but privately.  When the show ends, this evening at 7P.M.EST....they will be
updating their web site.  I would give that a couple of days though as the
last update was on 20feb02.  The addy is:
    www.acclassiccars.com
Also, if you go there now and click on Saturday's listings there is a
picture of the car.
Take care.
Best Regards,
Nick (always looking f/ a turnkey '72 4dr LeBaron)
