| 12/07/03 | Kevin Budden... | If I had the money, I'd ask Bob to build me a modified just like the one you see! (what a great looking car). |
| 12/07/03 | 3-Wide | Yea, but think how mad you would be the first time you took it to a vintage meet to show it off and I was already sitting there with the one I would have bought if I had hit the lottery a week earlier! I agree - This car has perfect lines, back is up just high enough, and for those that remember as Paul mentioned in the comments above, orange with a black top, with big 70's looking white numbers made this thing a real looker! Bob was and is still known as one of racings greatest fabricators and that opinion is coming from some of the fabricators of today's racecars. Let's not forget that as a driver, Bob was one of those rare guys who could get the job done on asphalt and then turn around the next night and "Do it in the Dirt!" |
| 12/07/03 | Scott Pacich | One of the best looking coupes ever. If anyone can get me a description, or pictures of the frame and suspension set up I'd appreciate it. It's on my list of models I'd like to build....Scott Pacich |
| 02/05/04 | JERRY H | I REMEMBER SEEING HIM RUNNIN THIS CAR FRI NIGHT AT WINDSOR/THEN RUNNING THE BARNEY 14 SAT AT WALL STADIUM/ |
| 11/24/04 | Steve C. | You're absolutely right. This is one of the baddest looking dirt coupes I've ever seen! It's got that low profile look that was usually seen on the asphalt coupes from the New England states. Bob built this car after selling his previous car to my uncle, Bob McCullough. Scott, you may be able to get the dimensions of the car directly from Bob, because I was led to believe that he still owns it. |
