Looking For Mom's Tbird!
Hi Anders,
Perhaps that is, but it does not look like it is Candy Apple Red to me. It looks to be a darker cooler in that shot. But that could be because it is an old picture. I am in conversation with Roger O'Dell now, the present owner of Larry's '58 Tbird. He also has control of all the pictures that Larry has in his picture museum. He thinks he has pictures of Tiffany's Mom's car, and will look. He does not know where it went. We think the story of it being sold, supposedly to Gary Niemie, got mixed up with Gary Niemie actually buying Larry's '58 Tbird, which he did, not Jeans. More to come as I learn more!
Here is the more to come! Roger O'Dell said that he joined The H.A.M.B., Jalopy Journal Forum in 2008 and saw the posts regarding Tiffany searching for her Mom's Tbird. Instead of emailing her, he told her in a Private Message, that he had seen pictures of Jean's '58 Tbird and asked him about it and her. She was from Texas, Roger said and the car was painted pearl white with rose pearl and candy red faded to silver by Larry for her. I have put Tiffany and Roger together in email and Roger just sent her a copy of the PM he tried to send her in 2008 and she sent it to me. However, it appears that Tiffany had not been back on that Forum after 5-11-2006 and never saw the PM's Roger sent her. At first he had thought he had sent Larry's phone number, but reviewed his PM's and it does not look like he did. But he could have if they had made contact. What a shame! I don't know if she had given up, or was busy with their new baby, or what. He said that Larry could have told her a lot about her Mom and maybe even what happened to the car. Roger said that Larry had a great memory until the end, that he remembered everything. Roger is going to look through the collection of several thousand pictures for more pictures of that car. He says he knows there are pictures of it up on the walls in Larry's Photo Museum.. So that is the latest. It is unfortunate that Roger and Tiffany did not make connection back then. Roger has since called me to say that he does not have any pictures of her Tbird on his laptop, but does have several of Jean that he will send us, perhaps tomorrow.
