This is my old Manhattan that I sold to Kaiser Bill for his Museum.
Boy do I miss this car.  We drove it all over the West - 18,000 miles.
Vapor locked now and then but other than that it was a pleasure to drive.

Take a tour through Kaiser Bill's Museum in Utah.

Well the Old Manhattan was just drive and polish. Very original and unrestored.
18,000 miles ... lots of people choice awards  and lots of smiles and thumbs up on the freeway!!

Not in a museum - yet - if ever.
This is a story about the auction offering of a Pontiac ambulance that didn't carry the body of JFK.
Notice the car that Tammy Allen is sitting in.
