As good as the car sounds in the video, it sounds amazing in person. Totally different than the HEMIs, Cammers, etc. there were at Meadowbrook. Really snappy sound to the engine. Great to see the car, in person, and finished.

I saw the owner taking it for a drive through the pits last night with Scott T. in the passenger seat. Presumably his first drive in it- he was grinning from ear to ear.

And probably having a hard time (no pun intended) not wanting to take it for a quick pass down the road.

No - the video Tenny posted from Meadow Brook was his first drive - but - I presume each drive elicits that same response....

Saw the car at Norwalk. AWESOME was looking at that radiator. Its different and with a Harrison manufactures tag on it. Ask a fella that seemed to be with Scott and the owner whats with that radiator (looking for a history lesson) ? In a low voice says--It cost 20k to have Harrison reproduce it. Thats wasn't the answer to my question but very interesting.

When we were eating at Ames on Saturday night the owner did just that. We all looked at each other in shock as the car and driver went tearing down the road.

Gary,that is the correct unit for the car.Randy had them done for crazy money.They are avail now.Very pricey about $1500 with out the mounting hardware.I believe Scott told me it would be about $500 to have him duplicate all that stuff so about 2K to get one in a car.Tom

Was Stan Antlocer not able to make it to Norwalk? would have been neat to have him there with the car. I know he lives in California, so it would be a long and expensive haul for him, has anyone talked to him since the car was finished? i'm sure he would like to see it in person!

I saw the car at Norwalk last weekend. The car was flawless as would be expected. I am very disappointed they kept the straight axle in the rear and did not put the transaxle back in it.
