    If I'm not mistasken that was Vern Tardel's car. Also, if I'm not mistaken, it had a great motor hidden under the hood - a flathead, of course! C'mon, somebody got to have some pics of this piece of history.

    Yeah, it was (is?) Tardel's and it had a flathead from a tank. Also a lift off fiberglass roof insert, it was way cool (spicy?!). American Rodder had a nice feature on it 10 or 15 years ago (?), I'll try and find it....
