THE HISTORY OF ANY CLASSIC CAR IS ALWAYS HARD TO NARROW DOWN EXACTLY. THIS CAR IS HEAVILY DOCUMENTED WITH ALL THE CORRECT PAPERWORK COLLECTORS DREAM OF SEEING. THE CAR WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED BRAND NEW ON 05/08/1965 AT FRANK RIERSON PONTIAC IN CLOVIS NEW MEXICO. WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE ORDER FROM THE DEALERSHIP SHOWING THAT HALLIS P ELLIDGE BOUGHT THE CAR FOR A TOTAL PRICE OF $3,004.18. WE HAVE ALL OF HIS SERVICE RECORDS TO SHOW HE SERVICED THE CAR EXCLUSIVELY AT QUALITY PONTIAC IN ALBUQUERQUE NEW MEXICO. HALLIS KEPT THE CAR UNTIL 08/05/1985 WHEN HE SOLD IT TO THE SECOND OWNER NELS JOHNSON (proof by reg). THE SECOND OWNER SOLD THE CAR TO THE THIRD OWNER ON 03/29/94 DENNIS SANDIN (proof by reg). ALL THREE OF THESE OWNERS KEPT THE CAR IN ALBUQUERQUE NEW MEXICO. THE CAR WAS SOLD TO THE FORTH OWNER ON 11/21/2003 AND IT WAS RELOCATED TO A UTAH FAMILY TRUST (proof by reg). THE CAR WAS FULLY RESTORED DURING THAT PERIOD OF OWNERSHIP. IN 2011 THE CAR WAS SOLD TO RED HILLS RODS CLASSIC CAR DEALER IN UTAH AND THEN SOLD TO MARK YOUNG'S NORTHWEST HOUSE OF HARDTOPS IN PORTLAND OREGON. THE 5TH OWNER PURCHASED THE CAR FROM MARK ON 07/19/2012 AND BROUGHT TO CHANDLER ARIZONA. WE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM THE 5TH OWNER WHO IS A LONG TIME CUSTOMER OF OURS. THE CAR CURRENTLY SHOWS 11,624 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE ARIZONA TITLE WE HOLD FOR THE CAR SHOWS THE MILES TO BE “BOX C” MEANING ACTUAL MILEAGE UNKNOWN SO WE WILL NOT GUARANTEE THE MILEAGE IS ACTUAL BECAUSE OF THE AGE OF THE CAR.
