JD is correct, it belongs to Jim K.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Kitchen, I'd be a bystander if I was there when you washed the sedan.

With all this flattering commentary about (just one) of Jim's toys, it's ironic that he's out of the country at this moment and out of touch with the net. He has no idea this has gone on.

That's not a Fordor -- it's a 28 Mercury Torpedo Salon.  Kitchen has the documentation from a cover shot years ago in a Swedish hot rod magazine.
