I'll add my name to that list of interested people
Walter Medlin and Basil Shadlin are different people. There have been several threads about Medlin-- search is your friend.
I had the pleasure of buying a Lotus Elite from Basil in the early 90's. It was a very fair deal. He was a gentleman to do business with. More importantly he has, over the years, saved many exotics from the crusher when they were just old cars with fancy wheels! I came here to praise Basil, and hope he is doing well. Very few on this board would have done what he did in the 60-70s To save these cars. As far as I am concerned, they are his and he had the right to do what he wants with them .
Thread bump. Has any new light been shed on the status of the collection? I would love to see 0927 GT, should it still be "unrestored".
