No, you are correct. Henry has it in Fla. Former owners did not respect the car. I think Henry ie trying to give it life, again.
Sandy passed away in 2012. He will be forever missed.

CFI cars actually have 2 pumps. One in tank and one along the frame rail. You can eliminate the rail pump when switching to port injection and replace the in tank with a high pressure pump.

April 2009

I have found out the story of your green ascMcLaren ! (Made a call to God!) Laughing Your car is # 43 of 50 made. Your VIN ends in 620353 !
the Color is Dark Jade Green Metallic.
The Top is "Tan" & the interior is "Sand Beige".
The car was UINsold & IN STOCK at ascMclaren. A person came along & told a man there that he'd buy the car IF they'd repaint it in that Dark Green Color. The car was originally "Atlantic Blue" Metallic (Dark) with the Tan Top & Sand Beige Interior. I was told to look deep into the driver's side door hinge to see a bit of the blue. They wet sanded and repainted it AT ASC McLaren, and sold the car. In 1995 the car had 48,500 miles onit. At that time it belonged to a Mr. Ray Noble of St. Louis, Mo.

P.S. -- I 4-got to tell you that it was THE FIRST unit painted in Atlantic Blue (it was a late 1984 at #43 (of 50) and they wanted to see HOW the car looked in Atlantic Blue, before OKing it for production for the 1985s. It was THE only '84 painted Atlantic Blue Metallic, and the only 1984 1985 1986 painted in that Dark Jade-Green Metallic, for that initial owner, whom I do not know whom he / she was...

Henry has the pink one. I've seen it at his place with my own eyes. While it is not a parts car, it is far from pristine. AT least it was 5 years ago when I was there.

Yes, the former (original) owners were not very kind to Coral Red.

Lol, I could have 2, 1 ofs.........

Funny, I'm a Steelers fan and I could own the only green 85 and yellow 89 cars.
I wish blue jeans, old cars, and boots would go out of style.
