Mitch and Lisa "are from a place
called Ipswich which is about 70 miles east of the capital of London,
England on the coast. It's not a bad place." Mitch continues, "I
did live in Savannah, Georgia for a little while when I was in my teens.
That is how I became interested in American cars. I did own a Pontiac
Le Mans when I was there. The Sport Fury I own now is the first American
car I've owned here and I can't wait to get it on the road. I always
said that I'd own a classic before I was 40 and I'm 34 now so I've
achieved my goal.
I don't have any history on my car but will hopefully
get some over the coming years. All I know is that it has been over
here for about 5 years. It was shipped over by a company who sell old
cars for restoration. The company is called California Connection based
here in the U.K. They were doing the work for a customer who then decided
it wasn't what they wanted so then C. C. put it up for sale. I purchased
it about 2 months ago pretty much as you see it now.
All the interior has been reupholstered and put
into storage until it can be installed. As you can see my wife Lisa
and I have a lot of work to do but it will be well worth it when it's
done. There are a few parts missing which will be difficult to find
but with help from you and other enthusiasts I'm sure I will find them."
