12/02/06 Dave Wow! That's great! I think that's the best shot I have seen on the track of that car!  It took 2 people to take that hood off it was so heavy... all steel!   I still have the scoop hanging on my wall! My garage is like "Memory Lane" as you know!
12/02/06 3Wide I knew that you'd like this one Dave.  Thanks for all your help with the Vault, and for bringing the blue #42 coupe back to reality so that we could all enjoy what its like to watch a coupe slide sideways again.  Thanks also to John Mosher for providing the photo.
12/02/06 Dave I kept this car a long time after I was finished with it. I should have kept it longer obviously! It would have made a nice vintage car for someone once you fixed the steering problems. It felt like the steering wheel was hooked up to a torsion bar instead of the front wheels! I also remember it weighed 2920 lbs! I ended up finishing 5th in rookie points with it. Thanks for finding this picture!
