Default Re: Any history on this car?

Not one early 60's thru early 70's former or current racer that I have spoken with remembers this car going down any of the still operating or now-closed New England area tracks mentioned in the ebay auction info ad....anyone know for sure if this car and its history is legit? W/all those Epping win stickers, one would think it would've had to be a "regular" up there....ebay item #190418297712....auction ends tonight.....WJ

W J,

Thanks. It looks like the people bidding think it is the real thing. I never would have guessed it going to 20K, but it hasn't even met reserve yet. It is going to be interesting to watch.

Car did not sell(meet reserve), but interesting to note was that late in the auction after the bidding slowed a "buy it now" for 26K was posted. Apparently no one decided to use it.

Has there been any more info on this car? I wonder how to prove that it's legit. The price seems reasonable. A "W" code 427 '67 Fairlane conv, former record holder, listed in HMN just sold...first day for first class subscribers.

The questions to the owner looks like a typical political press conference transcript.Not a bit of information is revealed.Sounds like a page on facebook or a string of H.S. girl text messages.

Yeah, notice how he glossed over the National Record thing?
I'll bet the guys on the HAMB Junior Stock thread could dig that up in half a day, if it were true.
