okay, an update. The owner and I have agreed upon a price and I have bought
the car, subject to verification that it is real. I had a long talk with Lanky
Foushe yesterday and he feels that the car is real. He has volunteered to
inspect the car which is located 93 miles from his house. I also had a long
talk
with Bob Boig the car's previous owner. The stories all match up so far. Looks
like Fourstenou (sp) drove the car. I am still piecing together competition
history.
Lanky says that one of the cars was hurt bad at Mid Ohio and rebodied, but
this probably is not that car, Lanky and Bob also tell me that the early cars
did not yet have the Datsun axle mods.
Our plan is to restore, race and write about this whole process (assuming the
car pans out). A few people have told me that b they know a secretb but
didn't want to tell. Come on guys... teasing is well, just teasing. if you
know
soemthign spill your guys. A few people have given me real good info.
Any and all REAL info that would help document or disprove this story and car
would be greatly appreciated. Who drove it, where and when would also be good
to know. Thanking you muchly.
