    This, for years and years, has been one of my favorite pictures of what I believe is a Jack Calori 1941 Ford and a rigid Triumph custom. But I have never found any additional pictures or info on this truck or bike. I'm going to ***ume this is in a magazine somewhere.... Does anybody have more info? I'm wanting to clone it and would love to see it in person.

    Wow that is so dang helpful, thank you. In the bowels of the internet someone posted this picture back in 2012 on their blog and the supposed owner chimed in. Flash Engineering in Pasadena says they have owned the truck since 1981... but I can't find any info on Flash Engineering.

    Well I traced it down a little further. Keith "Flash" Robinson out of Pasadena had it since 1981. I just had a short conversation with his brother Doug at BMR racing and Keith p***ed away last year and his cars were all sold. That's unfortunate. Someone else out there is the owner of this truck.

    Dave Simard bought the truck from Flash's estate.
