(Stuck a scanned old photo of the original car)

Well fast forward to today, we lost my grandmother a year ago and my grandpa was wanting to get the 61 back, was able to get in touch with the guy they sold it to a decade ago and he actually still had it and was ready to let the car go. So we sold some spare stuff, pooled our money together and got the car back. Needs a little TLC as the car has pretty much sat in the garage the last decade, but nothing crazy.
Really a nice Car ..I almost bought one back in 1965 ,,but instead bought some hay growing land...hope you got it back for the same price your grand dad sold it for ,, if not , still a wonderrul feeling getting it back
