YES, i know this is the "E" Bodies site, but please forgive me for asking this question here on this site, also.
It's important for me to find out.
Would anyone out there in the Mopar world, know where the Purple, 1971 Hemi GTX 4 Speed car, in now located, and possibly who the owner is?
It's had three different owners since i sold it off back in 2010.
I kept it for 33 years before i sold it.
That's another long story, for another time.
I sold it to a big league collector in Southern California, that had it in his collection for ten years or more.
Then he sold it to someone that i think is named Flanagan, or Finnegan, in what i think was Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, one of the (I) states?
I knew it was put up for auction at one of big national auction houses a few years back, that i thought that it didn't sell at the reserve price, of $350,000 thousand dollars.
I just got a phone call from the guy that i purchased the car from, back in 1977, years ago, saying it has sold at $250,000 thousand dollars.
If that's true, someone new to me, is the current owner.
I would like to know more about that car, since i owned it.
Anyone out there know where it's at?
It's like it fell off the face of the Earth.
You can write me a pm if you wish, and not make it public.
Thank's a lot. Appreciate any information.
