Hi...I sent an e-mail to the seller with the required info with no response.  I'm not sure the seller keyed in their correct e-mail.  Anyone know whose car this is?  Thanks....Geoff Hacker (813) 888-8882.

It appears to be in San Diego CA.  Maybe Rudy knows about the car.  Is it actually a Manhattan or a Special?  San Diego cars can get surface rust from the ocean air but not underneath the car from salt damage.

Gordie, if I remember correctly, there weren't any '55 Specials, they were all Manhattans.  I'll check my handbook when I get home. Either way, it's a rare car.

Very cool. Geoff, in a case like this you will have to be super proactive.  Make sure you follow his rules and include your contact information. If you are a KFOCI member, make sure you include that in your response. Sometimes it helps, plus I often put full name, address, phone number, everything. 

Is it true that this is 1 of 44, I assume 44 means 2 door Manhattan.
