Title: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it? Post by: Anders-DK on September 01, 2008, 13:26:57 pm Hi All US guys!
(http://meninbugs.dk/oval/231605.jpg-for-web-LARGE.jpg) Is there any of you guys that knows this 1957 Diamond Green Oval? It has been owned by Brian Cox and a guy called Larry Jarvis. The new owner "Gregg Hannon" lives in Florida, but I think the car originally is from North Carolina. http://meninbugs.dk/oval/Gregg1.pdf http://meninbugs.dk/oval/Gregg2.pdf http://meninbugs.dk/oval/Gregg3.pdf http://meninbugs.dk/oval/Gregg4.pdf Please leave your comment below, if you have any inputs on the car - Good or bad ;) I will appreciate any comments :) Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it?

Post by: Anders-DK on September 02, 2008, 08:13:07 am My comment is a great car from a fellow florist ;D Thanks for your reply I think the car looks solid and it sounds like a fair deal, it has the potential to be change to a really nice cal-look/street racecar or DRKC style, only with a few changes. It reminds me of François "Shrek" Delvaux Green Oval from SCC2008 , and ever since that weekend I have that car in my mind day and night. :D (http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=6307.0;attach=19985;image) (http://flagstad.org/view_picture.php?image=files/2008/SCC/Sunday_17_08/Small__MG_7650.jpg) (http://flagstad.org/view_picture.php?image=files/2008/SCC/Sunday_17_08/Small__MG_7654.jpg) Anders Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it?

Yeah, Aaron Broughton's car was amazing! It was also featured in Ultra VW (issue 12 i think?) Amazing car! Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it?

Hi Yes I know :D, I have a issue from Ultra VW magazine I think it's from 2004 hanging on my wall in our great room, that car is just so nice but it's on an other level than this one, almost to nice to use as many other great looking cars, and you know me, I would like to use my car. ;) And I have kept the detailed Fuchs wheels from the yellow split ;) Anders Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it? Post by: Trent B on September 03, 2008, 20:22:16 pm I built that car here in Los Angeles in 2001-- sold it to a Harry Wise in North Carolina in 2002, its changed hands a few times since...
any questions on its history?? Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it? Post by: louisb on September 03, 2008, 20:37:50 pm I have seen it at FL bug jam a few times if I remember right. Nice car.

Post by: Rennsurfer on September 04, 2008, 22:15:45 pm Get rid of the "slammed" look and alter the stance to be more Cal Look and it'll be a good lookin' car. Good luck with your venture.
Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it? Post by: Anders-DK on September 05, 2008, 07:24:42 am Good luck with it! Now I'm sitting here reading this and don't know how this was meant, positive or negative??? Please tell me if you know anything about the car I need to know? Get rid of the "slammed" look and alter the stance to be more Cal Look and it'll be a good lookin' car. Good luck with your venture. Yes this is exactly the plan together with some needed stuff for the track, but lets see if this car comes to Scandinavian .

Whatever you decide - good luck! - and I mean that in a positive way! Best rgs BB Title: Re: Diamond Green 1957 oval - from Orlando Florida, Anyone knows it? Post by: Trent B on September 06, 2008, 18:02:29 pm "good luck" meaning "good luck" nothing negative from me... |
