Attended the car show in Pomona today with Mr Nickerson, the former owner. The reactions by passer by's was remarkable. Surprised by how many...
At Pomona with former owner. People loving the UT. I noticed an elderly gentleman having his picture taken in front of the UT by his family. I...
I spoke with my plumber friend who I shared a photo with. He confirmed that he shared it with a very well known hot rod restorer that he is...
No one was asked to keep mum about the UT in general. We wanted to keep the sale, buyer, and roll out private. Nothing I wrote conveyed any of...
I recall speaking with you on the day of the pick-up. It was great to observe it all. I don't want to add any more drama; I think I have...
Thanks for the heads up. I will respond there.
This is an example of where there is an absence of accurate information, it becomes a breeding ground for conspiracies and rumors. And there is a...
There was a July 1966 HRM cover that was faked that had an Ed Roth type picture of the UT on the cover, but it was not the real thing. There was...
I agree; it is a very focused crowd for the most part... Until someone's writing style ticks off the word-nazis. Then they seem to lose their...
Never seen that pic before. Classic! But the prior owner has a magazine that is the equivalent of f Japanese Playboy, and the fold out has the...
Perhaps. But there is a basis for my using the term "Gonzo." You correctly connected the term to Hunter Thompson, but do you know the back story...
Duly noted. Thank you for the suggestions. I am new here and did not realize Gonzo writing was forbidden. It will not happen again.
Nailed it. Buick nailed it.
Thank you for your observations. My somewhat cryptic announcement back in December was due to a high level of excitement that I was experiencing...
Thank you for the kind words. After some weeks of back-and-forth, we (the former owner and myself) set an appointment for Beau and Dave to come...
I thought the video was great! It gave good context, and got to the point soon enough. The passion and excitement of the new owners is great to...
You are an astute observer. You are correct. You are second person whose power of observation/detective impressed me. on this site There was a...
The former owner was part of the late 50's/60's San Fernando drag/custom car circuit. Most of those people are in their 70's, older, or dead....
You may be over analyzing what I have wrote. Nothing to gain other than sharing with others what I know about the UT. Everything I wrote is...
I have no idea what FEM is. There is good hype, and bad hype. Good hype is: "Tune in tomorrow for a big announcement" and you tune in, and if...
I couldn't say much prior to the formal press release this week. But I wanted to build some anticipation. I had no intention to offend, but if I...
FEM rocks! And thank you for your cooperation. Regarding the documentary, it will blow your mind. The revelations will change everything you...
You should consider being a detective. Good work!
Correction: Steve knew who had it. He did not know where it was. Very, very few people in the world did. The owner did a great job in...
Only a few people in the world knew where it was. Anytime someone got close, it was moved. The hand-off was filmed for a future documentary that...
If you still have your hat, you are not paying enough attention to what the UnCertain T find means to the car world. But there will be a...
You got them all... there was only 4! But the wait is over. If you still have your hat, you are not paying attention!
The wait is over.
Certain T is alive and well! Thank you for your concern. Did you think that I would make that prediction and just disappear? I will be with...
Not exactly. In fact, what happened was exactly what I predicted. I was there when it happened, and it was agreed to keep mum about the details...
