    Best way to soak it all in is to tell a story about it. Great story!

    Thanks for the history lesson! Now, you can write the next chapter of this Bad Ass Roadster.
     
  10. I had a chance to drool over (literally) this at the Hill Climb in Colorado this year. What an amazing car! Here's a few pictures that I snapped of it.

    I remember reading this back when it first posted, I just didn't get it all together until now.
    IMG_20170915_115032838.jpg It is a time capsule and it gets driven
     
  13. I only got a quick minute to chat with him when Bob took his car for a run up the hill. But yeah, seems like he's a genuine dude and a good caretaker for this rad little car.

    He was having a blast, as was everyone there. I just kept staring at the car not believing what I was seeing. The Bleed crew was full of fun

    That's one of those cars I don't think I could've parted ways with... its cooler than a deuce 3 window ;-p
    I can't wait to get my roadster done... seeing this car running around and my reaction to it is proof that I LOVE 28/9 roadsters! :)
    -that thing has great proportions.

  16. Yeah, this is one cool story - to think the original builder gets to see and drive his car once again - and that it hadn't been screwed with to much. And it is fantastic that the new owner appreciates it for all it is . . .
