Super Lucky Find

PhillyD post number 17 has a link to the dealer website. Just click on classic cars and scroll down a bit and you'll find the festival car. It's a pretty nice car.

Hey look what I found just down the street from me. What a super lucky find, I had to buy it. I got it from a dentist downsizing his collection. The guy had for I think 7 years?? Came from Florida before him. I thought I was the only TTA obsessed person around these parts.

I am gonna call this my birthday present to myself, for justification purposes. After all how often do you see an ultra low mile hard top cloth car?? The way I see it, I didn't really have a choice, I had to buy this, as I am sure all of you would have done the same.

This is TTA 1322, all original, even got the gators....

Jerred,
That car was in Florida for a long time then purchased by Dean Higson in Alberta who bought it in 2002 from a guy named Steve. I am assuming you bought it from Dean.

I beleave it is the lowest mileage Cloth Hardtop in existence. Mine has 4673 miles on it.

I see it still has the decals and pace car plate on it. I never thought Dean would sell it. Nice addition to your collection.

I have had my Cloth/Hardtop now for 6 years and will not be letting it go!

Dave

I also have a cloth/hardtop #6 and the first hardtop built (6K miles). I wonder how many of the 15 hardtop/cloth cars we can track down? Congrats on the find.

I got the VIN's of all 15 and city / state for all of them and owner contact details for 10 but not sure if they all are up to date.

Ya I spelt it wrong, sorry man. Go to www.columbiamotors.com and it is Dave Delaney's car lot. Look in the Classic Car section. Speak to Dave himself if you are interested in buying the car. He has listed for 45k but I am sure from speaking to him he will let it go for less. Good luck man, it is a nice festival car he has.

Funny how they claim that car being car number 34 @ Indy ... it's not no 34 built and not 34 at Indy ... so wonder where they got that from?
 
Wow I must be totally losing my marbles ... I tracked Jarred down to get me the website and thought it was a hardtop car (which I only inferred from his post but he did not say that) only to find out it is a t-top car. My mind is jello ... :)

Great car and he'll never ever get that kind of money today. Another never registered car (t-top leather) sold for 25K 2 weeks ago with all documentation ... even the sunshades came in their original box with instructions!

Oh well ... if anyone knows of a hardtop car let me know ...

Sorry man, I didn't mean to miss lead you. I thought I put "festival car" and I just assummed that that meant coth/T-top car. If I find another hard top I will let you know for sure.

Jarred.
