I normally don't do this, but thought it was worth a looksee

I never post any of the e-bay related fodder but I thought this was cool and warranted some attention. Anyone know if the story is true or not?

I love it! A Conversation with Virgil Exner, Jr.

 

fits you fin theme

It is cool in a weird sorta way tho

 

Haven't we seen something like this in a movie a few years ago, young Luke?
And am I reading this wrong?

"...I utilized my almost 60 years experience in automotive design and fabrication to finish the car and make it street legal. I drove it daily in San Francisco until 1969."

Wouldn't that make this guy over 130 years old?

 

There was a full write-up on that car in a recent Classic & Sportscar (hey, what I read on my own time is my own damn business! ). It's all true and documented.

Cool car. Cool history.
