Very cool Stephan.

I always liked Art's muffler configuration in that top picture.

Art's car was the best kept secret for a long time.....     It was a rare treat to see any publication of the car, back with the 1956cc (?) motor, and that cool muffler...

Wow! Where has all the time, hair gone? Grin  ..I still running those old Firestone on the rear just recapped version now..

The muffler back then was a home-made turbo style. ( I still have it as today ). someday I will make a new updated style.

Thanks all, Steph..

I wasn't gonna say anything, but since you did...."Wow! Look at Art's hairline!"

I am wondering if Ron went from long haired young guy of the late 60s/early 70s to "Old Guy" in a blink of an eye? (I can say Old Guy because I am one too)
