Apparently the company folded early on.
>>>It's from the December 1984 issue of Motor Trend magazine. It's
a GT5, not a GT5-S--it predates the entire notion of the GT5-S. And
the company in question is Stauffer Classics, run by George
Stauffer, in Blue Mounds, WI, which is still doing great business in
exactly the same place it was back then. George imported the GT5 to
North America, with help from Kirk Evans. Kirk then became the
distributor for the GT5-S and George bowed out.
Contact George and he can probably help you.
Cheers!
Mike
