That thing is UNBELIEVABLE! I would do many many illegal bad things to have a work of art like that to drive every day!

They did a fantastic job on that. It's great to see it carving corners again.

What failed about the trans at Pocono? Have pics from that race?
Off Topic I know, but it's interesting to me.

Which is kinda odd, I wonder if he has a "thing" about HTA oriented stuff, or if he's simply just too busy.

Watching his latest interviews, I can say that he is still as sharp as a tack. Seems to be a pretty cool guy honestly.

Gary, I am a jealous jealous man. hahaha

I LOVE those wheels. Can't wait for you to get them mounted.



Did they ever make that style of rim in aluminum, or were they racing Mags only?

Yes, thanks Ken. Although I clearly was not involved with that car like you were, it too was my favorite Todco, and possibly one of my favorite Trans Am cars altogether. Spray can red or not, that car looked sharp.

Even though it came up with over 900 pages I went through them all, but not in one night.

LOL Yes Jon, let us please not lose you to the internet. We want you to come back at some point.

I understand this is rather off topic or random, but I found a nice portrait of Milt Minter from a 1972 Can Am race at Laguna Seca. There are some more photos of the race as well.
