    The car had been unused and stored under a tarp for 30 years. It is in the final stages of restoration at this time, and will be ready to be shown in the Fall of '07. The car has all matching numbers and is looking very good.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
