Central Georgia owner of a remarkably Rust Free 2+2 1966 BW Automatic LHD. Car was purchased locally in 1996 from an FAA Flight Service officer - he had stripped the car bare - and built an addition to his home AROUND the Car !!!(sport /entertainment room). After 3 days he removed a wall and I trailered it from Kathleen GA to Macon GA......Car showing less than 77K but the 3X SU's and intake had been sold. After restoring the radiator - setting up a LN SU System - the car ran great wi good oil pressure and no smoke + great throttle response.

Since 1999 - the car cas been in a garage on Jackstands - rear unit removed to replace brakes - car was overcoated with rust neutralizer then a ligh spray of ppg prime. Stopped the resto due to cost of SS Brakes (all calipers have pitting - thinking of selling since it is an early rust free example and do not want to modify the car ---- but do want to go way faster than a BW Auto is capable of. Thinking of taking offers --- want to build an ERA GT40 or a Stearman.

Awesome Rust-Free Flat Floor Series 1 2+2... the only rot at all is a very small distorted area under the battery (not really rot). Since the car turned out to be somewhat significant - I don't feel good about modifying it. Its a true Series one -

The original owner sold it to me in 1997. After stripping the paint chemically - he proceded to build a rec-room addition to his home AROUND the car...a wall was removed and 3 days later I took it home. I want to build an ERA GT40 or maybe a Stearman - I'm stopped at the stage where the car is ready for new SS Dunlops or ful on Willwood Brakes --- ie stay original or just go for it.

Really a neat car.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
