If you say so. And as a side note, it’d be pretty cool if SLP converted it into a Firehawk in the modern day. Too bad that’s not really an option

You guys have short vision. Something will happen to this car now that it's been found. You can bet your bottom dollar on that. Whether current owner or somebody else.... something will happen.

Really ????
We have seen this many times here,
especially when it's from someone who does not actually own the car in discussion

You know me, I'm one of the people least interested in RPO codes, badges, stickers, provenance.... But even I can see that somebody is going to be hot all over this car and make it beautiful again.

And why mock someone when they express interesting in putting some care into their car again? Enjoying the car is what the hobby is about.

Agree, but it's not "their" car .......the OP has no ownership in it.....which is why I assume this will go nowhere

Owner doesn't need us to move forward, got what he needed from us already. Our thoughts just don't matter any more.

I would 100% subscribe to a thread showing the restoration of this car though. I think we all would.

You need to buy this car and complete the conversion. You know you want to!

I’m late to the party but a long time 1LE enthusiast. I’ve owned two and am looking for one. If this one is actually for sale PM me.

Reviving this thread because we never got the promised pictures and the car’s actual owner has the chance to get in contact with Hawk’s Motorsport and do something really cool

I believe the car in question is or was in negotiations to possibly be sold.

I'm betting the actual owner of the car got tired of some forum weirdo constantly pestering him about it and moved on with life. And the OP crawled back under his rock (or back into mom's basement).

Gotcha. Well, I hope it crops up again sometime in the future.

Agreed, the later cars had VIN confirmation but no matching SLP data to confirm
