I would be interested in such a car if I could get a taxidermist to stuff and mount T.... oh, forget it.

According to the first Double Gun Journal Index and Reader, Tom Kidd owned it, and it is the only surviving example. I took some photos of what I believe was the same car at Harrah's in Reno in 1977. A car guy friend of mine said the remains of another Fox car had surfaced a few years ago. So, perhaps someone with plenty of time, patience and skill and/or lots of money, has it restored by now?!?

Oh, what the heck. I wouldn't mind owning a Fox car even if Tom Kidd weren't stuffed and mounted and sitting in the driver's seat.

Thank You!

Well, at least then I wouldn't be able to spend all my time chasing ambulances and screwing widows out of their good Fox Guns as I have been accused of doing.

Have a Good Day.
