Hey Chris, that is cool news.
yes please let me know if he knew or knew of Dick Richard Tabin, I would have to highly assume he did? also, could you ask him if he knows anything about a 67 Springtime Roadster or maybe anybody that he may know that might know some history on it?
thank you

I spoke to my father-in-law over the weekend, and unfortunately, he wasn't familiar with Richard/Dick Tabin. A lot of what he worked on at the time was highly classified and I think he had small teams on his projects. He did confirm that they were definitely doing the manager lease program even back in the late 60's and stated he wasn't eligible for his first lease until '69.

Good luck with the history search though. What you've uncovered so far is really cool.

And I spoke to my friend with the '77 Ranger and he does not remember many details because he was so young at the time. He's ordered a Marti Report anyway though, so we'll see what it happens to say. He did not get back to me on the DSO though.

I'm going to talk to his mom about it too, to see what she remembers.
Wish I could remember the important stuff in life too! I just spoke to her yesterday and totally forgot to ask!
