I completely agree with your thoughts. On that same note, does anyone know of the whereabouts/condition of Foster's car?

But, I find it reprehensible that he decided to let it rust away to nothing rather than to allow it to be given/sold to someone that could have restored it to its rightful pristine condition. Just to watch it rust/dissolve away knowing full well its history and importance is crass and downright selfish - many people offered good money (and were denied) to save this unique car.
