i own mine and hope to have the power plant in this summer and start driving it while i finish the build
I've owned mine since '67. Its been ridden since then and holds its class record at Bonneville and El Mirage.
Own it, drive it, dig it. Now if I could just find my testicles and take it to the Thaw............................
Built it, owned it, drove it, raced it, sold it.....miss it. But, I'm collecting for the next, improved coupe as we speak...
SOMEDAY...! Mine is actually a pic of my dads D/Gas 55 chevy he built and raced in the late 60's early 70's. I'm currently trying find it to buy it back or I'll clone it as a honor to my dad.
I've had the Norton so long now I'm beginning to feel a bit like him! Cool guy, great racer!! S/F Burt Munro '67 183.586 A record that has stood for 42 years. Need more be said?
It's a 1952 Glasspar, forerunner to the Corvette (Glasspar founder Bill Tritt was consulted by GM). It's fiberglass, about 1/4" thick. The body by itself weighs 185 pounds.
<<<<<<<<<<<<< its me and my olds, yes I drive it, but only when the sun shines, we got lots of snow at the moment
Heres me & my lil' girl Becks, we had Burts bike in our care for a short time,this photo taken 15 years ago
I own the sedan delivery and the truck it's sitting on. I drive the truck. Hopefully I will drive the sedan delivery in a couple of years.
Falcon is mine, not a daily driver though as it is sixty miles a day and it does not like interstate speeds at all.
Be glad he didn't leave it in my care! I'd have had to do a few laps!! How did you wind up with it? Even for a short time.
almost ready to go. got the crate engine from pep boys installed. just waiting on a back order for some heartbeat of america valve covers and matching wire looms. then she will be ready to roar. im so excited i cant wait.
