yes it is back in WNY,
when I had it all that was changed from when Oddy raced it was the black paint and flames(and the 440 engine)
I sold to a guy in Canada and it went through a few owners and was beat up pretty bad
they removed the roll cage and the interior and threw them away
then the nose was crashed and they put a model A grill shell on it,was painted yellow.

then John Cassiol found the car, bought it and did a great job restoring it to the way Jim Oddy raced it.
that is John in the video

sorry this answer was so long.
but "YES" it is back in WNY where it all started...
