Cool Re: A990 Super Stockers

My story :
In 65 I had a good paying job at L.O.F. Glass Co.
I called Dodge & asked how I could get a new car. They said we will send you the paper work & you have to ordered it from a local dealer.
I went to "Glass City Dodge" with a offer to have them help me with the car If I payed for it.
It was on a Friday night I meet with the owner in his ofice, I'll never forget that it was a Friday night as you will see in the rest of the story.
He said lets fill out the papers and come back tomorrow moring & I ll sign a deal with you.
So as I drove up to the dealership at 9:00 am Saturday the place was covered with cops.
As I walked up & tryed to get in I was told that the owner had "SHOT" himself last night.
When I told the cops my story of being with him around 7:;30 last nighht they asked me ?
for a long time.
I still have the form I got from Dodge some place in our papers.

Holy cow Tom, that sure is a weird one...did you ever find out why he did it or was it foul play...and your lucky he didn't snap in front of you or something else worse happen when you were there...so you almost ended up owning a '65 Dodge Coronet A990 or did you have something else in mind at the time.
