Tha original story in this thread is TRUE.
As I stated, I am not sure of the number of Dave's car. He was from Oregon I believe and bought a farm outside of Meadville in about 1990 or 91. He owned a publishing company that published magazines and books. He was thorn in everyones side until we got to know him as he had an endless amount of $$$ to spend on his cars. He had a GN first , but told us about these special GN's that were faster. Then one day he showed up with a GNX.
He also had a factory expierimental Nissan AWD 3000 with a supercharger that he put NOS on. It hooked so good, you could not beat him out of the hole and you had to run him down if you had the horsepower to do it. He met his wife, who was from Saegertown and bought a farm. We got the call that one day he was pulling logs with a tractor and the log caught and flipped the tractor onto him. He laid in the field for hours before he was missed. He was about 38-40 at the time I believe. I made a few calls this afternoon to find out if any of the old club members knew what happened to his wife. They were not sure. We think we remember is business partner getting the cars, but it has ben such a long time, no one is sure. I am going to look in the phone book and see if she is still listed. As I said, I do not know the number, but he bought it in 1990 or 91, so he could have been 2nd owner or so. I know he bought his GN new. I was only about 22-23 when he died, so I have not thought about this in almost 20 years. I have always wanted to find his car, but the post in this thread about the Carfax report lead me to believe it might be his. Certain people did not believe the story about the tractor accident as first stated, but the story is true. It is a little twisted from what did happen but not too bad for 17 or 18 years. If the first guy said his neighbor knows of a GNX and this story, he has to be close to one even if it is not #3.
Thanks
