and ya might be on oprah too!
It's a new show they wan't to make called "Found". I don't believe they want any part of the restoration. It's for the Oprah Network, but I don't think she has any actual part in it.

What do they mean by reunite?:
1) Simply let a previous owner see the car it it's current state.
2) Buy the car from you, 'restore' it, then give it back to a previous owner.
3) 'Restore' the car, show it to a previous owner, then let you keep it.

Man, if #3 were the case then I would go for it. You would need to insist that a correct restoration be done by a reputable shop. I would say No Thanks to a Foose style restification. It would be a shame to ruin that car.
I believe they mean #1, but I would guess they would want to get video of Alfred with the car. Right now, it would be Alfred next to piles of parts
and a car body.

Oh ya! Definitely, no Chip Foose style for this car. I read somewhere that he was using prison labor to build his cars anyway.
