No one huh?

Have you googled Carl Casper?

 

yup nothing and the one picture on his site is not working!!!

 

Google Carl Casper, ignore the first hit.

Go down about 5-6 hits to the videos with E-Rider.

One of them has a video clip on the car

 

John, just saw your post asking if I had any pix of Carls car. Sorry, but no I don't Keith

 

Here is a link to a video of it...

This is all I could find

 

it was a cool looking car

 

didn't know it by name but was in love with the cars look in the early 60's

 

Carl restored the Empress and showed it for the first time at the Carl Casper Auto Show in Louisville, KY in February 2005. Carl is still building cars and had a hydrogen powered 32 Ford hiboy and a hydrogen powered Ford Escape with many custom touches at this years show. He autographed posters of the Empress in 2005. Sorry I do not have any extra posters or photos.

 

Not sure if it is there but in the Kruse Auto Museum in Auburn Indiana there is a whole section of vehicles owned by Carl.Don't know if they have a website but they should.It is housed in the same building as their WWII museum and opening soon the Granatelli Museum.Museum is located across the highway(I-69)from the Kruse Auction House.

 

I just saw the Empress at Carl Casper's 50th Anniversary car show this past weekend. I have a couple of photos, but the file size is too large to post. If interested, send email to papawolf@howlingwolfranch.net and I will send them separately.
