And the almigthy F40 this car belongs to Jim Mackingvale aka Mattress Mack. He used to have this car on the floor in his funiture show room for years. It was there for alot. It sat in the show room for about 10 years. And was beat up by everyone that walked by to look at it. The gas caps were stolen which caused water to get in the tanks and ruin the pumps. The emblems were pryed off the car. I can go on and on but They restored all the paint and rebuilt the motor it looked great.
F40 This Belongs to Jim Mcingvale AKA Mattress Mack!
