        A factory 4.56 geared L88 roadster. OMG. That would be one hell of a great ride. Who ever ordered that car is a hero in my mind.

          Yea, I cant imagine it was ordered for the street. My 4:11 geared L71 is at 3000 rpm at 40 mph. 4:56?!?! Yikes!

          Is the history known? Raced? Restored?

                  Running out of adjectives...that's remarkable...but I need more of that "great owner history" Ordered by a young soldier is fairly common tale... but why? To go racing? Did he, and he didnt blow up anything? How, and why, did it stay so pristine? How many owners? When did the Dr. own it? How long do you have it? Is there an article on the car someplace? I find these car's historys fascinating...
