This one looks like the big deal of the day. If you're looking for a good driver at the right price, I'd say you found it!

I'm pretty sure I know the owner.  Owatanna is just a hop, skip and jump from me.  The owner helped me with the meet I hosted here in '05.  I've never seen the car but the steering wheel alone is dang near worth the asking price.

You guys got my attention.  Fid, I am in Des Moines, Iowa (you may know that, maybe not)  I believe you have the relatives in Shenandoah, Iowa where the KF sign is.  Anyway, I cover Minnesota now for my company until we hire someone "up there". And my brother has a house in Faribault so I am very familiar with Owatonna.

Opening the ad though - looked like brown paint to me.  And a "basic" Special.  But yes, $3500 is cheap KF fun.
No old cars owned.

I don't have relatives in Shenandoah.  I have a cousin who traveled through there last fall and told me about the sign.

Yes it's a basic Special.  Just like the one I have.  Fun car to drive.  I recently put 700 miles on mine driving to a meet in Mt. Pleasant, IA.
