Why was it considered junk in the first place?



I am not sure Robin... possibly because the Silver paint was toast. Also, there was a series of rapid title transfers, and possibly some litigation... The four title assignments were filled out on the back of the title... never saw that before or since. I will try to post some of the documents that I got from the Texas DMV in the next few days.

I had the RR driveable after a day's work... new battery, clean the fuel tank & lines, and kit the carb and it was road ready... the tires were a bit sporty tho!

A few months later I dropped the 440 in... and promptly blew all the facing off of the clutch disc. Then a new clutch disc and off I went...
