His first words to me was "tell me about this little beauty" then said "I drive all my cars"
I told him to go to Trans Am Prototype facebook page and watch the show so maybe he will change his mind about daily driver status... |

Hey Curt – I just found out that the car is local to me in So. Cal. It supposedly shows up at a Saturday morning cruise-in in Newport Beach occasionally. I hope to see it in person to complete the cycle. I sure was glad to be a small part of it (at Peterson Museum) in the beginning. Meeting you, Rick, Gene and Stephen was a pleasure. Now I hope to see the finished product. Thanks for letting me be a part of the history. Doug

Curt - Last weekend was a treat. Thanks for making it possible. The silver T/A was striking and the two tire patches (posi) left behind will be a reminder of our visit. It was a joy riding shotgun in that beauty. I'm glad we got to hook-up at Donut Derelicts' in Huntington Beach. Hope to see you soon.
