My question is, Did you chase this very car for 3 decades, or this kind of car? If this very car, sounds like there is quite a story there that I/we would be interested in hearing?

Same car! My brother in law bought it in a storage locker in 1985 w/ 18,000 miles for $800.00. He put 10,000 miles on it in all these years. It's been setting in his shop most of the time........ He finally agreed to sell it to me when I sold my 1948 Ford F1 with a 383 Dodge engine. I called it my FoPar........ Wife is much happier now with the Olds ride for cruises... Just went on Cruise in the Woods to Ft Dodge, Iowa. Great time 1373 cars there.
