Hope I've put this in the right spot ?

I guess it's been in storage since about 1971.
Spent most of the storage time in eastern Washington.

I Don't know what it is, but it's mine now.

If any one can give me a clue about anything about it ?
It would be a Great Help !
Please let me know !

Have attached some photo's.

Thanks in advance !

Cheer's, Curtis

Curtis,

I do not know what it is, but it is really something! Good luck, great project. The only advice I can give, be sure and find out all you can about it before you touch it.

It's listed there under mystery car's by a previous owner.
Seems no one there has come up with any thing yet either.
I sent them my info in case some one does.

I've all so checked with the forgotten fiberglass web site as well.
So far still a Mystery !

Thanks again, Curtis

I'll send the photos to Geoff Hacker, he's a buddy of mine.
Between he and Harold Pace, we should be able to figure it out.

That woould be Great !

I did send Geoff an email this morning.
The body does look like a pro job on building.
Not something cobbled together .
I don't think the chassis it's sitting on is orig. to the car.

A person said they had seen it in some magazine ?
But don't know witch one, or when.
The guy wanted big $$$$ for the info. ;(
Wouldn't give it,
just let a guy see a copy of one page for like a sec.
And wouldn't let him read it.
So don't know if it was even real ?

What a Mystery !

Cheer's, Curtis

I don't know why, but it seem's to ring bells from the race scene in the Elvis flick
"Viva Las Vegas". There were a few odd-ball homegrown specials running in that movie. Just looks familiar. Would be from around the right era too.

Well I found a clip of the race in the movie on the web.
And the car is not in there.
Was a good thought tho !
I'll just have to keep looking.

Thanks, Curtis
