Title: Does Anyone know what happened to this car?
Post by: jpc647 on January 24, 2021, 06:19:51 PM
I remember when this car was listed a decade ago? I just figured I would post here and see if anyone knew what ever happened to it?


JFK Jr's Turbo Coupe.

Hope it ended up in a collection where it can be saved, not just since it was well kept, but it's minor historical value, too..

It changed hands several times over the years, and nobody seemed to want the car for what it was. IIRC it was starting to get rust and rot. Bearmax was the last person to have it and he parted out a bunch of stuff from it. I got the passenger side door armrest panel where Daryl Hannah likely rested her arm (flipper?).

That is definitely one car that you wish could have talked...

Now that you mention, I think I remember some posts about it back in the day. That was some time back...

The things you forget.. :meh:

This is my recollection now too. I vaguely remember hearing it got parted out too.

Like you said, the things you forget.
