Wow this is an old one!
The car was never identified ! I sold it to a young guy in Miami !
As for my surgery well I still hurt but I can now walk without my Cain ! If I do to much I Know it !

still digging, have you tried to do a title search on this cars history to see where it has been in its life
 
trouble is most of the guys are passing or have past ,if it was a Barris the one to talk to would of been Bill Hines but he has passed also

Let me tell you I don't miss that car one bit!
I bought it from a lady for I believe $2000 it came with a fully rebuilt motor and trans witch I needed for my Buick at the time also alot of newly chromed trim and new plastics! Took what I wanted kid brought me a 30/30 rifle and a sks rifle and I think $1000-1500 bucks I sold the two rifles off for about $800 or so so I ether broke even and got all the parts I wanted or somewhere in there ! There was no title. It was a interesting car but the work seemed to shotty to me ! But then again I was told that's how most of the movie cars were ! That front end was ungodly heavy!
 
I thought that it had a title
