    Interlagos international Course. That was an Pre 2021 F1 event that occurred prior Brazilian F1 Race. Some vintage race cars were invited to participate and the Seagrave represented the 20/30 era!
    I was very proud to be invited!

    Well as a Hotrodder, I think I'll ask that standard question that is always part of the conversation at some point...how fast have you had the beautiful beast?...

    Well, with that 1926 Buick external contracting brakes I didn’t have balls to exceed 65 mph until now! LOL!

    I just saw and read the entire thread. Beautiful build, and so happy to see you were able to make modifications to repair the engine.

    I've been to Brazil 17 times for a total of 43 weeks. Mainly in Piracicaba, and some weekends in Sao Paulo. I loved the time I spent there and the people I worked with were very talented. I understand how expensive the shop space and car building is there which makes this build even more impressive.

    Please continue to post pictures and adventures with this car. There should be many years of enjoyment.
