I met Vinny not too long ago and I can echo earlier sentiments. We wouldve chatted for hours if he didnt have somewhere else to be. I still have that mirror waiting for you Vinny!

I hope to see this car painted soon

Hi Simon! :smt006 Glad we got to met! So sorry I had company at the same moment that day. :? I certainly need to get a move on if I have any chance to drive this girl to Solvang this April!! A new job has me burning too many hours and I'm exhausted by the time I get to the shop space. :(

Hey Vinny,
Rolling through Laguna Beach several years ago, I spotted a Red Roadster at the car wash. If I remember correctly it belonged to the owner of the wash, or his brother. Only saw it the one time. You run into that car at all?

I saw a red roadster there as well a year or two ago and I meant to stop by and ask, but I never saw it again.

After asking around, it was the owners 1600 at Sweetwater carwash on the pch. I think he's since sold it.

Sold it when I moved out of state to Cali. Just bought a 69' SRL old solex track car in need of a full restore and a 70' SRL to restore with a frame off and doing a SR20det swap. I have no hate for the U20's......I just love 3-400 hp in this lightweight platform.

Any Socal'ers nearby?
