That is a grand story...did you buy the car from him? (The original owner) If not, how did you find the original owner? Man! I would share his feelings, if someone would show up with my 65 Commando, Barracuda, that I had owned since it was six months old. Traded it in on a new 1975 Chevy step side, one of the dumbest things I've ever done. I've tried finding it for years. Had dreams about finding it.

Well, sort of. I bought it from his nephew, who only had it about 6 months and knew he wasn’t going to do anything with it. The nephew was supposed to put me in touch with Jerry, but after waiting almost a year, I decided to try to find Jerry by going by an old registration in the packet of paperwork I received with the car. The nephew was too scared to tell Jerry that he sold the car. There was a 3rd party involved who found the car for me, but we won’t go into details about that. In the end, the car is in the right hands and that’s all that matters to myself and Jerry. My next step is to go pick up the nephew, who’s has seen the car since he was a little kid, but never heard it run or ridden in it.
