The 80's restoration was under Fursenko's ownership, right?

The mom of my son's schoolmate used to be Dezer's personal trainer when she lived in Miami, and I understand he's not hard up for money at all. Curious as hell how much it's going for though.....

This pic shows that the car had its original MM1 gloss paint job for all of MM2. The "flat black" was just dust and dirt over the gloss paint. When the car is pulled on into the compound you can see reflections of stuff above it in the hood and fender paint.

Yes Fursenko was responsible for the "Restoration" if you want to call what was done to that car as such.

Dezer is NOT selling the car. YES it is listed as "for Sale" and is getting tons of press for it. BUT.... I know of several very serious buyers (ready knowing the price is likely multiple 7 figures) try to buy it, and they do not bother to call or write back. This is true of other high profile cars they are "selling".

Its a gimmick to get press. They are not willing to make any effort to sell it, or even return call/emails or take offers.

Promotional effort, that is all.

Ive seen the original Interceptor a few times (twice in January and twice in May a week ago) and I can absolutely confirm it is the one... and I have vin and engine pics to prove it. https://www.facebook.com/groups/leanmea ... 235035092/ I had special access to see and take pics of the engine through them and obviously I cannot thank them enough, I doubt the car will be sold anytime soon, I mean it is owned by a Billionaire... but If anything different happens to it (engine bay cleaned or dents taken out or they take it to a car show outside - hopefully thats my main goal is to get outside pictures of it) ill go back and get more pics (I plan to go back in october or november)

Heres a walk around video I made in Janaury https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTMnsMs74S4 (excuse the music, couldn't do anything about that)
