Comments: In one of the few Coupes to have made it out of the 70's and into the 80's, Vault contributor Dave Spurlin shown above before doing battle one evening in the Sportsman ranks at Flemington.   I understand that this car was built by Bob Fisher and that Dave is currently working on a complete recreation of the car right down to each and every bend and turn of the chassis and tubing as originally drawn up by Bob.

06/29/05 Guy Coupes are great, what's the deal with that HUGE back bumper?
06/29/05 3-Wide .... might had to do with that big red box sitting back there!  Actually Guy, you're right... That's a Bumper!  Dave is a very practical guy and my guess is that he probably had somebody rearend him at one point and ended up with a lot of damage and figured Never Again!
10/05/05 Dave Spurlin Actually I liked the body so much I just wanted to protect it! This car meant a lot to me. I never did hurt the body or the bumper for that matter!  I guess it was good luck! Everybody used to bust my chops about it!
03/28/07 Marty Bigley Dave any chance of getting a copy of prints to build a replica chassis of the coupe your rebuilding.
Thanks
Marty Bigley
