Picture was taken at the Madonna Inn, Oct 2000.  The Madonna Inn is the perfect place for such a car.

These two photos were taken with a Kodak DC-20 camera.  As you can see, the car really does have fins.  And, quite a rear overhang too.  It's the only thing I've ever driven where you can see the tail lights in the rear view mirror.  But the tri-power makes it pretty fast.

about 1983

Well, it's now 2002 and the car is progressing slowly.  Very slowly.  The engine is done, the body is back on the frame, but there is a lot of woodwork to be done before I can remount the doors and do the interior .  In fact, it's sat so long there are some cracks in the paint that will need to be repaired.  But some day it will be on the road.  The question is, "When?".
