A little backdrop on this car. I found this car via a DMV title search back in the late 90's or so, and actually spoke to Earl Roof's father initially. He apparently lived across the street from Earl and Linda, and was kind enough to confirm that they actually had this old car and he gave me their contact info. After speaking to Earl for a while about the car, it was one of the best stories I'd heard - especially their trip to Yenko Chevrolet. Several years later, Brian Henderson and I were out 'Yenko Hunting' one snowy weekend, and I had arranged a visit with the Roof's. What we saw was a great car with excellent speed parts - and some NOS sheetmetal leaning against the wall! Glad to see it in it's current condition, and hope it comes back East so we can see it more often. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
Some pics from when Brian and I went to see the car. BTW, that day actually got even better! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
