Mark Hill is the new owner and will be restoring the coach. He recently drove it 30 miles from where he found it and saved it from the crusher to his home.

Wow! And for the longest time I thought Jimmy Black had #1. Or was it #2...?

Good luck with this project. This could be Smithsonian material.

There is prototype 1 and prototype 2. When production started it began with number 1 again so there are two number 1's and two number 2's. Prototype 1 is in Morgan Hill and is now owned by Doc McCaren. Prototype 2 is in the La Jolla area of CA.
