John -

Neat experience with your Amphicar at the show. You mentioned never having had the opportunity to examine a Tucker up close. A friend of mine with a deep enough pocket acquired a Tucker for a quarter million and displayed it at the Fort Lauderdale AACA show. That area was our home for 35 years andused to be our stamping grounds. Originally, I am from the Detroit area and my tale originated there.Many of ushave "what if" or "if only my crystal ball worked better" stories. One of mine iswhen I was answering an ad for an antique car in the early 60's. In the same building were two Tuckers and the asking price for either was $ 4000. That was certainly more money than I had to throw around at that time, but with the benefit of hindsight, it would have been money well spent. Vic "Captain Splash" Nelson near Daytona
