As I stated before Mike has been involved with everyone of these existing cars. Mike is honest and doesn't put up with much nonsense, ask anyone who knows him. I'm not shocked that he hung up on you to be honest....

Sounds like you have some sort of an axe to grind with him and I'm not sure why. If you know somebody that had the car before Mike and they want a pat on the back then ok but whoever had it left it get into terrible shape and did nothing with it. At least Mike got it to Todd eventually.

I think calling Mike a hero is a stretch but he does deserve credit for finding these pieces of history and preserving them or getting them to folks that will preserve them.
I think you are missing the point and you are right it dose not mater so why not tell the real story I bought the car in Detorit not it was left in an ally for umpteen years ,come on do really believe that so if I said Dick Landy farted in my car would everyone think I was an authority on Dick Landy

Nobody said Mike was an authority on Sox & Martin but he is very knowledgeable about them. He is the authority on AWB Mopars.

Did you ever see the car in person before it was restored? It may or may not have been in an alley but it was left outside for a long time...

I may have missed the point, you are correct about that because I still don't know what it was....:rolleyes:

I'm done debating Mike Guffey and taking up space in this thread about if a car was found in an alley or not.

No, I don't think so. The hardtop went from S&M to Buckeye & Vernon and that was it. I don't recognize this car.

Knew Buckeye and Vernon bought both the hardtop and sedan.
Just wondering what this one was. Maybe just tryin' to be a look-a-like Sox and Martin car.
Lots of similarites to the real one if you look.

So what are you trying to say mr belvedere that mike guffey didnt find the car someone else found it and saved it from being scrapped so mike guffey could find it in a barn years later and take all the credit for saving it from the crusher that sounds a little far fetched to me sounds like theres a conspiracy maybe you can tell us who killed kennedy next.
