There was a video going around not too long ago of that black Willys dropping off a kid at school. Pretty bad ass!

He got some press too in the article:

The Gasser class is looking like its gonna be a good one this year. Jim Forbes traded in his heavy tri-five Chevy for a super lightweight ’62 Chevy II. We had a look at it while Jim was helping a newcomer to the class, Paul Nichols, whose ’55 Nomad is also super lightweight, but possibly because the body is a little rusty! Paul doesn’t mind the cosmetics, he drove the Nomad here from Colombus, Ohio, and he plans to sleep in the back all week on an air mattress. That’s where Jim came in handy, he had a small compressor to inflate Paul’s nomadic hotel.
