Looks like Faulkner - how much do you want?

Actually, Stefan had stumbled upon a page of sold vehicles -- including the '59 SF shown there. I did a Mapquest of the distance between where the car was reupholstered (Steve Green's shop in Boise, ID) and this dealer in Meridian, ID. The map is below. What are the chances that this car isn't Faulkner?! Place your vote at the top of this page!

OK, I'm ending the polling early... Stefan definitely stumbled on a piece of Faulkner history. Steve Green was the guy who reupholstered Faulkner, and had it painted. And here's a note from the guy who owns "Lost Classics":

I actually sold it for Steve through our web site.

Thanks,
Jeff

And here's an old email from Lee Thomas, the guy who bought it from Pritchett. At the time, I was unable to contact Mr. Pritchett:

Hello Dan,
... Here is the information I have. I purchased the car in June of 2002. My intentions were to fully restore it, but they got derailed. I purchased it from Jeff Pritchett, ..., Twin Falls, ID 803301... The car was located at 6510 Fairview Ave., Boise, ID 83704 at the time of purchase. I believe Mr. Pritchett was acting as a broker...

But, now I know for sure -- thanks to Stefan!!
