Some of the other documentation...perhaps not all pertaining to this car. The battery kill switch is with the car and never installed. Same for...
Here's some of the letters from Norman Latham to Edgar Irving. It tells the story of Edgar researching in April of 1962 for a 327 build,...

More documents. Apologies if some are repeats...there's a lot of stuff and m multiples of some [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
This thread was just shared with me. I'm following a very similar theme...except the Latham was bought for my car back in the day. I have...
I hadn't seen this thread. Cool. I'll need to spend some time reading through it. Thanks!
A little bit more of the Latham info...more to come...[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Not yet, other than what family told me. I know he raced at Old Bridge in Englishtown and probably some of the other NJ tracks. He also made...
A little teaser... I picked up the Model A rumbleseat roadster I bought as part of the deal today. The widow gave me folders of documentation,...
The car left the factory Incan Silver. I may discover in the layers there was a color change in between but not likely. How I wish that car was...
Awesome vid!
Seriously? Holy shiite!
Thanks! It appears that early on it had a 3-speed floor shift conversion. I'm convinced the car came as a manual based not just on the linkage...
Thanks. VIN and data plate don't call out manual or auto in 57, but all the linkage, z bar, etc look factory. The engine suffix in the car was...
I'm going to build it the direction the original owner was taking it...using the "super port flow" heads and cam, the supercharger, and the key...
The convertible frame also has a 5/16 or 3/8 steel plate welded all along the length on the bottom of the main rails. It held up better than I'd...
I'll need to get better pics of the electronic ignition.[ATTACH]
What I've managed to catalog so far. Still have a bunch of trim and parts I either haven't gone through or didn't write down [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Please ask...I'm sure it's just been modified but curious nonetheless
Thanks. I really appreciate the info...and you stepping up. While I won't "make a few beans" at that price, the wife won't kick my out for...

You know, I probably shouldn't have ripped out the carpets. $2k seems a little high considering. Does $1500 seem fair?
Might be the case...and I'm not trying toma ke this something it isn't...just not seeing color variation that I would expect. The column doesn't...
Last night it was reinforced why I feel I need to resurrect this car and maybe why it found me. A family friend who has several big block...
I agree mostly. It's a little extra special as a fuelie convertible...but so much cooler as a hotrod
That's what I need to look at...nothing jumped out at me while looking at it, but there's been so many shiny things I may have missed it. Hole...
As I continue to read and learn, one thing is confusing me. Remember, this car came off the road in 1963 so there was a short time when this was...
I had to go find the pic...would have been very cool if complete
That's been my dad's line for several years with much lesser finds. This time he wanted to know if the whole horse was up there...
