A gentleman in Illinois had purchased it to travel Canada, but I believe he became ill and his wife later sold it to a Peoria car dealer.

Bill Folkenroth (1941-2018) bought Pulse #253 in Sept. of 1992 and have had it in storage since then. It had been repainted white with red and silver trim with only 11,779 miles on the Honda engine in Nov. of 2005. It became an advertising item for my Pizza place, Leonardo's Pizza of Peoria, IL and was known as the "Leonardo's Bullet," but was towed where ever it went.

Later owned by Tom Baker and his father, then sold to attorney and car collector extraordinaire, John O'Quinn of Houston, TX. Probably the only billionaire to ever own a Pulse.
