Jim Abernathy was always a car enthusiast. Like many enthusiasts, he also had a keen eye for spotting rare and interesting vehicles in his daily travels through New York City. One day, while traveling down Park avenue, he came across a car that was one he didnt see everyday, a w111 cabriolet, stuck on the side of the road, its owner irate about it leaving him stranded. Ever one to seize an opportunity,. Mr. Abernathy asked the owner, who happened to be Calvin Klein, if he would want to sell such a rare vehicle. To which the answer was an emphatic yes. Hence Mr. Klein ceded ownership to him, and thus began an relationship with this car that lasted over 45 years until his passing recently.
