Re: [FWDLK] 1961 Plodge story

[Jan & Roger van Hoy <vanhilla@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Looks like the same car that came up here for discussion a while back. 
Hemmings Classic Cars was going to do a feature article on it, spent time 
and money, then shelved the article when the car's history wasn't accurate.

IIRC, it was allegedly one of a few ordered for Mexico delivery, but the car 
was actually originally delivered to PA not far from where it was found.

Most likely it's just a Dodge with a Plymouth nose.

What did the entire article claim?  You might think about writing the 
magazine to tell them they've been fleeced.  Have them get ahold of Richard 
Lentinello at HCC for the real scoop.
