    I got the history traced back to 1962. thats when Don Phillips got the coupe at the taunton m*** swap meet, he owned it until he p***ed away in 05. thats when a body shop in woonsocket R.I. got it. the coupe sat there for a year and they give up on the it and it went to the junk yard. it was then placed on top of a box trailer which is when I saw it for the first time in sept 08. After I bought the coupe I brought it to the gathering of the faithful car show and thats when Woody Woodward told me about Don. when I removed the body from the ch***ie I was able to tell that at one point somebody had welded the body to the ch***ie too far forward. that means the engine bay was a foot long and thats when I think it was turned in to a race car. thats all I got at this time. if somebody knows more please let me know. thanks Jared

    Where did you get your drive shaft re-splined? Locally or did you have to send it out?
