John Buttera 32 Coupe

Hey Guys, been on the site lookin a bit lately.....my interests are mainly in 1950's thru 1970's.
What I wanted to know is.....
Does the John ****era 32 coupe, with the Chrysler Weslake cylinder heads still exist?
It was built in the 1970's from memory and is my all time favorite hot rod, and that engine was quite unique.
Cheers,
Rodders

 

The last time I saw it displayed was at the GNRS 75th year of the '32 Ford. It was rumored to have changed ownership numerous times, damaged and rebuilt, ect. But it still exists. The FOGGER

 

It lives in Westchester, New York and now in possesion of Jim DeSanto..

 

and it is way red
that dodge motor won the first race at dover -uac indy car driven by rodger ward

 

I liked the brown and the first ever billet wheels , which are long gone too

.....This is not best site to tell this, but this was the first billet car , and started the Billet Revolution....

 

This one?

 

I remember the story about him carving out that first set of wheels because he didn't want to spend the money to buy someone elses wheels.
He also made the rest of the pieces because he could make them him self to his standards and not have to pay someone else for them.
