The car is a very accurate 289 that was built about 20 years ago. The body and frame were supplied by JCF in Coos Bay, Oregon and I completed the build in about two years. Painting, upholstery, engine, trans., and Jag rear work was done by professionals to a very high standard.

I would like suggestions of a qualified person who could appraise the car, preferably in the Portland area and I would appreciate any thoughts you might have.

Strange, I had a friend who just went through this with her fathers estate (Warm Springs area). She had asked me if I had heard about, or knew a Glen Harmison Jr in Oregon who appraises cars. I advised I had not, saw a web site, but did not have any hands on knowledge of them. Advised her to check with local car clubs and specialty insurance companies to see if they did. Perhaps you might want to do the same.
