They should at least give the original owner (if still alive) the option of buy it back at a reasonable price.

There's been a follow up story. The original owner has contacted the insurance co. Her kid has said he'd like to get it. Then he wants to put a Porsche motor in it.

:'(

I hope they don't get it.

I also heard that the upholstery place that did some work on it 35 years ago is under investigation.

The plot thickens.
