    That's super cool. Still hoping to make a visit to the museum yet this fall and it will be great to see the car again.
    Do you know how long they'll have it there?

    That car makes me drool! BTW, have you noticed the seat on your trike has very similar s***ching and color to the seats in the Predator? HRP

    Wow Mark I missed this thread 1st time through, what an amazing car! Kudos for putting it out on such a long term loan so others can enjoy it too. Id think there are a lot of amazing cars tucked away where no one gets to see them.

    That being said there must be a spare space in your garage.... :)

    Wow, that's a chunk of time. Five whole seasons at the Minnetonka Drive In!
    Always wondered if it might show up in one of your Thursday evening posts. ;)
    Thanks for the update!

    One of the deals about buying it from Denny was that he didn't want me to drive it on the street. Yes it runs and drives, He did not want it to get chipped up and I agreed with the condition so, I have never driven it further than from one garage to the other. One other thing, It has a 56 chev cowl that is sectioned 6 inches. The driver compartment is extremely cramped making it difficult to drive, The car has 3 miles on it. I have plenty of other cars to drive

    Yep, understood and agreed. Just wishful thinking. None of those older famous show cars were really drivable either but that doesn't change how cool they still are. Carry on!

    It is drivable, just have to pay attention as the steering wheel can bang you in the legs if your knees are not far enough apart....
