84711

#1 Post by Dave Merz »

Anybody own '58 GT Speedster 84711? Cleaning out my barn and found pair of chrome velocity stacks with 84711 Leland inscribed on them.
Would be cool to reunite them with the car if still in existence.

84711 was owned by ?. Rowzie and it was the last roller-cranked engine #90959; Later changed to 90943.

I think that was Dan's black speedster. Last time I saw it was in a whearhouse in Alexendra, it looked like a parts book book drawing. He has started the disassembly and had everything laid out in sequence as it was removed. It's was a very good car. I think A 904 got between him and 711 before it was done.
