Attached is the original bill of sale for my 1962 Buick Invicta wagon

 

Sold to Samuel Hostetter of Chambersburg PA by Tom K. Fox - owner of Fox Buick in Greencastle PA

 

Samuel Hostetter owned the car up until 1989 putting about 81,000 miles on the car in that time.

 

The 2nd owner of the wagon became none other than the original salesman / dealer - Tom K. Fox

 

The two must have stayed in contact with each other all those years - I have a copy of the 2nd title from 1989 with vehicle ownership going to Tom K. Fox.

 

Tom K. Fox owned the car until around 2011 - he died at age 91 in a nursing home in 2013.

 

(How unusual is that - the original dealer buying one of his cars back 27 years later.)

 

Car was purchased by 3rd owner and subsequently by me.

 

You can see that the wagons were pricy - built in Ionia Michigan and shipped for final completion elsewhere

 

No air conditioning and misc. power options like windows and seats to keep the price point below what top of the line 225's were going for.
