I was over at Todd's place getting some final "tweaking" to my system and was about to leave when this beauty showed up!!:eek:

I was asked not to post it under the circumstances......but I don't listen well when I know most of ya would like to see a car this nice......Sorry Todd!!:shake:

This Rolls had the oridinal 1960 exhaust and had just developed a leak!!:beer:

Note that the system is wrapped in lead to help make it super quiet!!:cool:

I was not able to stay and see the results of "Bryan's Magic" but I'm sure the owner was pleased!!:D

Enjoy!!:)

Wow, talk about boxed frames. You could propably lift that whole car from one corner!!!

We talked about the car's weight and the owner recalled it was over 6000#!!:eek: That frame is probably half of the total!!:cool:

I'm sorry I didn't get some interior shots but I'm kind of new to these "On The Rack" photo ops!!:rolleyes:

Maybe between Donny and me we can make a few trips a month and keep this cool stuff going.....Whatcha say DC??:D

Do you know the story behind the car.....its appears to have two different license plates on it.....front one has DUD on it.....Dudley Moore :dunno: ?

All I know is that it is a 1960 model car and the current owner has had it eight years.....He is a quiet sort of guy that seemed to open up in time but unfortunately I had to leave so I only got some photos and the above info!!:shake:

I'm sure Todd got a lot of history on the car and perhaps he will "Chime In" since I started this one??:confused:

The car is very clean with very few cosmetic problems......What is hard to believe is the original exhaust system had just failed (46 years)....WOW!!:eek:

Is that Studebaker Avanti I spot in the background? Hm, I wonder what kind of work that car had, lol! Nice pictures btw.

Todd: "Glad they moved the wheel over to the left. Never drove onto the rack from the right."

or more likely

"Can't wait to get my plaque on this baby.... and post the pic...oh, ah..Jack?"

Great pics. Thanks for posting these great shots of this great car. Todd may be the lucky recipient of big time ***** envy...who knows? Thanks Jack. Dennis

The front license plate is a novelty plate.

The rear license plate is the REAL plate.

The Avanti is Todd's Dad's car and he had to move it so they could get my car "On The Rack".......Not very exciting by comparison!!:cool:

When Todd backed the Avanti out I could barely see him under the steering wheel.....No driver's seat..... He's having it fixed!!:D He was sitting right on the floor and driving it........Wish I had gotten a shot of that??:(
