I wonder if he has a thing for black sports cars. I spoke to a gentleman who
was selling his black MGCGT about two months ago. He claims that Jay saw his
car and talked to him about it for a while. It is a nice looking car.??Here's

I believe the car he was interested in belongs to a member of our Club,
the Austin-Healey Association of So. Cal., who is not on this List. It
is a black 100 nasty boy with Nerf bars and custom built-in side pipes.
It is fitted with an aluminum block Olds V-8 and dual Strombergs.
According to the owner, Jay talked to him for about half an hour about it.

videos where Jay refers to the project. Note Jay was super interested in one
of
the 100's on the British Car day at Woodley Park, LA a couple months ago.
