I saw this car and met the owner and his Dad at the Scottsdale Pavilions weekly car show one Sat about 2 years ago. I tried to get Harry to meet me again but there was no response. The car was a nice stock 54. It is probably as is stated. I am sad to see Harry is parting with it. I was thinking of contacting him again to see if he could head up to Reno. Oh well.
