Mike is correct. This is indeed the exact same car I saw the summer of  
2007 when I attended the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. No one was  
beating the door down to buy it then at 5k and It already had the new  
paint job at the time. The body work and paint were pretty good, but  
not great and I sensed there was a lot being concealed under the new  
paint since the engine bay was so shabby. Similar appearance was  
evident elsewhere as well. It shows nice at first glance and nice that  
it has the original documentation, but don't think it makes it worth  
an additional $13k I recall detecting some accident damage evident  
under the bonnet too. I have pictures of it at PVGP somewhere too.
