| Car history: |
On December 15, 1973, Galen Williams (of Brentwood NH) sold this car to Paul Holter (of Andover MA). The odometer reading at the time of this sale was 76830, although the original engine & transmission were no longer with the car. The frame was rotted and unsafe, so in the 1970's it was replaced with another frame in perfect condition from a donor car. The paint on the car was in very rough condition so it was covered in gray primer.
In the mid-1980's Paul built a 450HP engine for the car, and all the chrome and non-essential parts were removed so it could be raced at New England Dragway in Epping NH. The car remained in gray primer during it's brief racing career, after which it sat unused for the next 40 years. During this time, Paul moved to Nottingham NH and brought the car with him. Over time, the seats were recovered and the dashboard was replaced but the car was never fully restored, and all the original parts that were removed remained in boxes.
In 2025, the car was sent to the 'The Bowtie Shop' owned by Joe Scafidi for full restoration. The racing engine was removed and a 390 HP Blueprint engine was installed along with a 5-speed Tremec transmission. The entire car was taken down to bare fiberglass and repainted charcoal with silver coves. A new reproduction interior was installed to bring the car to a fully restored condition. |
