    Trying to find “Plum Crazy”. My dad owned it before selling it to Rick Porter. He was in an accident on the way to the track and the maverick was in the trailer which caused them to wreck. It paralyzed my dad and killed my Pawpaw. Interested in having it back for sentimental reasons. Any help would be appreciated!

    sorry for your loss.
    I haven't seen Rick around in a while. I think I still have his phone number, if so I'll give him a call.

    I'm not sure if it's the same car or not but bssed on your location there is a member here named "skeeter___".. not sure of ending to his signin name. Hope that helps.. sorry for your loss.. wish you luck in finding it.

    EDIT.. skeeterc144.. is his forum handle. In his garage section of this forum he mentions buying it as a roller and is a 1970 model. For some odd reason I remembered it being maroon or burgandy before his recent resto work was completed but my memory ain't near what it used to be so could easily be wrong there.

    PS. Your description is very vague and if you want to increase your chances of finding this car it would be best to include as much info as possible. Otherwise the goose chase will only get tougher for you guys.
