Last week was the "Colorado Grand" a 1000 mile rally event for early sports car and racers.
I was involved in a small way.We supplied all new brakes for the Tommy Lee Special.
The drummer for Motley Crue...no.
It is a one of a kind car built for the playboy in 1936 with Ford,Cord,Cadillac parts
And powered by a Offie engine.
I've known about and admired this car for the last 30? years.
Got to meet the new owner Fred from Canada ,great guy,very friendly and personable.
I even sat in the car.I would never do that.But this time...glad I did. (didn't fit very well)
