  1. Drop it off at my scrap yard.

    I’ll build a cruiser out of it

  2. Why would he be rolling in his grave? The condition of the car is not that terrible and it is still recognizable as what it is or was. Most other race cars from that era are long gone.

    I don't know why people are upset, it was modified & raced with the section in period...

    Everybody keeps mentioning the sectioning, I'm certainly no custom or body work expert but I think they cut the bottom off the car and then adjusted everything to fit.

    True enough but I still don’t think he would approve of the changes to his car.
    Just because it’s identifiable doesn’t make it right.

    What the car needs is a well healed "ANGEL" to take the reins and fix the poor thing!

  7. Rolling in their grave is a phrase used by the living to project opinions using the dead as an excuse.

    It’s no longer “his” car.

    current owner can do whatever
    The sectioning is kinda cool.

    Wait just a damn minute... wasn't it campaigned with Ollie's name on it, in this iteration? What's the problem? Jesus Christ guys, lighten up, it's the real deal!

    It's pretty obvious he is the one that made those changes.

    I don’t think so
    *Disclaimer* I have been mistaken a time or two over the years. :D

    All indications are that he did and it was done in the later 60s.
