You would need more documentation than a little cheap plaque and hearsay to prove provenance and add value. I know a guy name Burt Lancaster...he is not the famous actor, but he is a real nice guy...there are lots of reasons tht plaque may exist....

Close "G" They are actually referencing a plot from the TV show Sienfeld. Not sure if you are famliar with the show but one of the charaters buys a car that was supposedly owned by Jon Voit the actor. Pretty funny stuff (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Oh and BTW... I knew I always liked George Harrison the best for some reason (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) |

Jon Voit the actor didn't have much of an international reputation, but he was known around New York as a pretty good waiter. the famous guy spells his name: "Jon Voight" |

Voight is correct.
Everytime my wife sees a Chrysler convertible like the one in the show she says "thats a Jon Voight car". http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000685/ He was lead in the Coming Home, The Champ and Joe Buck in Midnight Cowboy and all we remember is he once owned a car on a TV show.

I emailed the seller and asked if there is a pencil in the glove with teeth marks on it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Maybe you could get a dentist to look at the teeth marks? That is, if you're not an anti-dentite. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) |

i could see the "rust in the common areas" being pretty impressive if the car lived outdoors in maui for sometime. esp on the hana side of the island.
