Wow!  That's pretty cool.  I wonder if he paid it off early with the $$ from "Close to You?"

On a similar note, I recall reading a couple of decades back that Robert Goulet (of all people) owned one of a very small number of 70 Chargers that were converted (by a dealer) to a Daytona. I recall reading a year or so ago that there was some bruhaha over that car, an argument about whether it was original (and how they were defining original I couldn't tell). Anybody know anything about this?
