345 horsepower in a 2.9L. That had to be so much fun (and a handful as well). The restoration looks great. Not sure I would've painted the rims green, but if that's what the owners wanted good for them.

From the pictures it looks like George's team did a great (and thorough) job on the restoration. Kudos to your team, George.

the editor did not let anyone in the know proof read the article before publication! Notice he said that it had fiberglass bumpers with girders and bumper shocks!

Read the article again last night: Since the owner was well known and the car was such a standout for the day, are there pictures of Corina and Brutus. And the Elepant hide upholstery - gotta see this I would like to see more about the cars early history in Germany
