I got to ride in the one Jim Pinkerton had. It was a sweet ride.

I got to drive it! I had to move it from one part of the fairgrounds to another to be picked up.

This was shot the evening before the show started and I was ambushed while I was cleaning up what was then Joe’s CJ GT-E so I was caught off guard and totally spewed out stuff off-the-cuff. Love Lou’s “My Car Story” posts and he was great.

And thanks again Joe for lending that awesome and important Cougar and trusting us with it! I was so relieved when it got back to you safely!!

Phil- you were so gracious to help show it, as my schedule would not allow me to be there. A truly unique and wonderful car with almost every part ever removed included in the sale. A “for real” time capsule owned by one family since new.

Beautiful. Glad it still exists!!! Sometimes I post these old ones, and find out it’s demise.
