Welcome aboard to PY

We had hoped this car would find its way here or pop up on eBay , so we could get more answers and info on it.

An internet media source caught wind of it when it was listed on craigslist - and sort of made some exaggerated facts of their own.

There were only a few pictures on craigslist and short information.
Glad its panned out to be a Matching #s HO 4spd with Special Paint.
That was basically what was stated on the listing - but we see a lot of initial claims that don't pan out all the way.
Especially concerning original engines.

That was a great deal and Windward is a nice color.
The large majority of Chrome Nose cars were Special Paint - just from my own observations/findings.
I have not seen the Registry that Mike mentioned.
Only seen a couple/few that were NOT special paint.

Seems like the total production of Chrome Nose is known.
Thinking it was in the 600's ?

This is//was a Windward Blue car i had forgotten about that a PY'er used to own .
