The first or second owner of the car, back in the 1970s, was a drag racer nicknamed "Coke Bottles" because of his thick glasses. His name is Gordon Vergeront, last known address c/o Three G Auto Sales in Madison WI. I spoke to "Coke Bottles" in 2001 and he said he had a photo of the car on his office wall, pulling a wheelie and sporting a full fiberglass front end.
I sold the car in early 2002 to Gary Holub, who added the Stinger hood. The car is very well sorted mechanically. Not the original drivetrain. Bulletproof and extensive documentation, viewable on the Sotheby's site.

I sent Gordo an email we'll see what happens.
