I actually just received contact from the previous owner. He purchased the car 20 years ago in Oregon from a fellow mechanic of which he only knew by first name basis, lets call him Richard. So Richard got the car from his dad because his dad hadn't paid taxes in 15 years and the irs finally caught up with richards dad. Richard and his dad then decided to make the car a race car and removed all the tags from the car. The also stripped as much as they could from the car to prep it for light weight racing. Then Richard had the car in a garage he was renting and had to move out and couldn't keep the car because the irs had at that point caught up to Richard. Must run in the family.
Any way the guy who purchased it from Richard , his name is Joe, only got a bill of sale and all the parts that are in the car. All the parts in the trunk you see have been there since the car was stripped in 1985. Now Joe who had purchased the car from Richard 20 years ago never even opened the trunk and saw the scoops. So the current owner, Rob, had never looked either. I was the first person to open the trunk since 1988 or something like that.
Any way, the guy Joe has said that he and his wife will definitely look for the old bill of sale so that I can contact the previous owner, Richard, to see if he has retained the vin or fender tag for a book mark or something.
Now that was kind of confusing.
I did purchase the scoops for pretty much nothing compared to the current market of not being able to find a set. And you know how that goes, as soon as you can't find something, the people who have them want as much for them as the wealthiest can afford.
BPchallenger, We would love to see pics of the EF8 car that you have. I havn't seen one in that color yet.
I can't find my book, that is green right?
