    It was Norm’s car. At least it didn’t have all the nonsense on it yet.
     
  6. No matter who the caretaker is, it will always be Norms car to me. Sure glad to see it brought back to its Glory Days.

    Doug,
    I agree on the carb scoop. Actually, the whole thing including the graphics isn't traditional. I just thought it was very clever.

    My son (now 51) just loved 'Sickity Sam) when he was 5 or 6.

    Yeah, not terribly traditional but the round tube chassis appears to be of real high quality, as does the engine and related hardware.
    I've just had an aversion to those particular air scoops since they first came on the scene.
