Re: forgotten exotics

My car dealer cousin called me up one day back in 1976 and said; " There is a car at the insurance auction with a bunch carbs going across the car behind the rear window, what is it?" "Shall we bid on it?" My reply; "Hell yes!" I went to see the car and recognized it right away as a Muira with the rear body gone and a little right front suspension damage. All we could gather up for money to bid on the car, was two thousand dollars. We missed it by six hundred dollars! I'm still crying over that one!
