Re: [DeTomaso] Auctions (Hot August Nights & Monterey)
Julian, My uncle (Wes Myrick) restored Futureliner #10. I didn't think there were more than one left. Can you send me any more information on Dan Kindig and that one?

One of them resided In a junkyard off Lamprey Rd in Newmarket, NH during the middle 1970s. I was a student at nearby UNH, we were out scavenging parts to keep someone's ride rolling when we stumbled upon it. Years later, after I'd learned what we'd found, I searched for it again. All gone. Junkyard too. There was a restored one at the Boston Cup car show held last year on Boston Common. Maybe that was it. Sent from my iPhone
