John et al,

Back in his hay day, you could have bought a matching set of 300 fake letter car convertibles (1957-1961) from Dave Glassel for over a million bucks. He advertised them in Hemmings. 

The Club did its best to advise people but Glassel threatened to sue the Club for interfering with his business. Officials, at the time, were intimidated by the threat of a lawsuit. 

I know efforts, by the club, continued to assist those who got stuck with the “Aces of Spades.”

I think the FBI tried to go after him? He eventually shut down his “Faux 300” shop.

John,

You are correct.  Guys name was David Glassel I think.  My grandparents actually visited his shop during that era of him turning out phony convertibles, unbeknownst to them.  Somewhere there is even a home video they filmed during that visit.  Could be used as evidence in court.  LOL!

My recollection is there was a bad actor out of Texas who built a bunch of F convertibles out of coupes and New Yorkers. I remember most of them being terra-cotta.

Hi Tony, The red F is a different car.  It took 1st place in concours in Golden CO.  Current owner unknown.  Sold by Tom Gerrard or his estate at Mecum.
