Bill, a zillion years ago (1964-65) they had an airshow at NAS Glenview, Ill where I lived. They asked our scout troop to help with support and the group I was in were assigned to "help" Bob Riggle, since he was there to do a part of the show. They had the transporter that normally hauled the "Hairy Olds" (it had burned the week before). Anyway it's amazing the details you remember: Drivers name on the roof was "Rapid Robert Riggle" and on the rear just below the trunk lock area was "Frantic Fish" in the same font. During the show Bob kicked the tail around at the end of the run and rolled it onto it's roof.....they rolled it back upright and he came back, up on the rear wheels, creased roof and all! Also if you check Mark Gussin's site he has some video of the car performing at Goodwood.
Your's is going to look great when you're done. :clap:
