You're welcome to post it here too, if you want, maybe a few other eyes will see it and help in the search. If you want to do .. that let me know.

Bump for my buddy Bob.

 

Here is one located in TX (another longshot). Can't tell about the firewall gauges...may get some info from the owner if you call. There are others for sale on the site, but most have been modified. Good Luck.

That was pretty freakin' funny.. Admit it.

and the ark joke was good, too...

Bob... good luck to you on your search... if you just HAD to have it, you could take out an ad in the classifieds section of the Gazette.

But that kind of car, that long ago, man, the odds are really stacked against you.

Hi Bob,

I remember that coupe. In 1969 I had a 40 Ford 2dr sedan and I would hang out in the parking lot of Packard Plaza in Cudahy. I saw that coupe drive by many times. He stopped once and I remember the chrome column. I will ask some friends if they remember him and if they know his name.

Haha badass, Vince. That was one of the cars I was gonna ask you about.

 

WoW Vince, that is the best lead I have had yet, please keep me posted.

Are you still in the Milwaukee area?

BB

 

any new news?

 

Hi Bob,

Made a few calls and this is what I have so far.

They think the guy in the coupe in 69 was in his early to mid 20's and think he lived in South Milwaukee or Oak Creek

I now live in Aurora Colorado next to Denver

 

it probably passed through boyds shop years ago hahahaha

 

my eyes..

 

Best of luck on this, Bob - I'm really hoping this group can track it down for ya.

BTW... 'Stuntman Bob'...?

 

Damn I never noticed that, you are close to being right. That was a swing set that I was standing on top of. Of course you gotta remember that I was 17 at the time and not as fat as I am now.

Thanks for noticeing that.

BB

 

now a-days it might look more like this... beer in hand and Travelocity Hat (TM) in place!

 

That wasnt the inspiration for the cliff diving comercial was it??

 

You were 17? Somebody told me you were born old.....

 

Good Luck man, the HAMB family helped me find my old Hot Rod right down to a phone #, but the guy wouldn't sell it. But we found it.

 

Let's keep this on top for Bob. He needs to find this one!!

 

I want everybody to keep looking.

BB

 

Bob I will definitely keep my eyes open here in Illinois maybe we will see it somewhere at a show and possibly be able to help you get her back!

 

I gotta get this back up again and see if we can find this ol critter.
