I purchased this car from a private owner in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1976, and returned it to my parent's garage in Des Moines, Iowa. For the next three to four years I attempted to restore the car but it was far beyond my financial resources and mechanical ability. Plus, it had severe body damage that had been hidden under a misaligned body panel and paint job. I did not spot this upon first inspection. The needed repairs to the monocoque were beyond my budget. I decided to part the car out and bits of it were shipped from Maine to California.

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?
