    I worked in Los Angeles for a while in the late 70's / early 80's, on Figueroa near 26th St. Looking at the Abbott & Hast paperwork I now remember seeing a building nearby with 'Abbott & Hast' on it - Never knew what they did........

    I remember the introduction of that car on V8Buick.com, after that the owner (not sure if it was you ?) went all quiet and never posted again.

    Board member 75Riv (Rob) came across your car at the All GM Car Show in Woodley Park, June 28th 2009:

    The car also appeared in the Hemmings Blog [​IMG]

    I
    I do not remember posting there , but when I first got it I was all over the place looking for info. I will register there and look for the post . If it was the other car I would like to get a hold of that person and compare notes. A few pics of the inside pretty amazing coachwork for 1 of 2 built. Thanks for the info. One pic is in front of the factory.
