...and lastly (for now) here's a 'bird with an interesting story. In the late 80's, I went to see the red 'bird (now blue - the Payson Crowell car) with a view to buy it. When I got to the owner's house, this black 'bird was in the garage, with the red 'bird on the drive behind it.
The black car was originally B5 and is another 6-bbl car. It was bought from the estate of a deceased Scottish Laird, who had a large collection of exotic cars. Mostly Ferraris, Aston Martins and such, but also a Boss 429 Mustang and this 'bird. The Laird didn't have a drivers licence, and would drive his toys around the castle grounds until he got bored, then park them up and move on to something else. The Boss 429 was parked in a barn, but the 'bird was found with a tree growing through it. All were sold at auction, most with very low mileage, as you might imagine.
