The car was owned by the same lady for 41 years. She died a couple of years ago and willed it to her brother who had no interest in it and he sold it to me. It only has 89,000 miles on it and runs well, but it needs a lot of work. Its 36 hp engine really made me appreciate the power of the engine in my Fastback. Brian, thanks for the comments about my car. By the way, I have been telling everyone down here in Georgia that the word "oil" actually has two syllables. It's amazing what you learn at Type 3 Invasions.
