That's a very attractive vehicle; the two-tone scheme is interesting. I wonder what happened to the third one?

 

Simple and elegant uncluttered lines. That's a thing of beauty.

 

I'm betting Geoff Hacker could dig up that third one! Not a fan of the painted cove, looks better solid to me, but beautiful cars!!

 

These are way way nicer than homebuilt sports customs usually seem to have been.

 

***ume Peterson still has them in the Vault. Again "Hot Rpdders" had great ideas and they were way ahead of the times. Nice style clean lines.

 

Only problem I have here is my usual one: these cars deserve to be DRIVEN and SEEN and not be sitting in a museum. You won't inspire new builders if you hide all of the old craftsman vehicles indoors. Drive 'em!

 

Hmmm. So the gent that does my show signs owns this.

it was displayed next to my 41 PU at the Portland Roadster Show a couple of years back

His family has owned it and restored it. it is magnificent!

These are the only pictures I took of it.

And the show signs that were displayed along side

I have not seen another, but I knew I was looking at something special.
