Wow. Someone got a bargain. It is a little dated but I would not give a dayum. Good thing I didn't know it was for sale...

Yeah - during his hiatus from GM. I didn't know that for a long time either...can't remember where I read about it. It actually may have been on a feature on this site that talked about Mark's career etc.....

He did know, and I'm shocked that he didn't buy it at that price. I know he preferred the original paint before the re-do, but damn, that was a steal at that price.

Cool car but nothing I need. Still trying to sell my 32 and I like mine better.

Blast from the past! I think I saw that car upstairs at the Seattle Roadster Show in 1999-2000.

Car was reworked a few times. The first version was a manual 6 speed.

As it should have stayed.


Still one of my all-time favorites of all the neat stuff you've done, Mark.
I bet there are some good stories of the development and build of that car.

Mark, what cylinder heads are those in the first picture you posted?
I relentlessly followed this build back in the day, although back then I didn't know much about who you were.

The heads were splayed valve heads. Because it was a Summit car we had to swap the heads to Trick flow heads.

I thought so. Thanks for the reply, Mark.

Being able to buy that car is/was a great opportunity for somebody!
I didn't realize either that Mark was a builder on that car. That's cool that you shared those old pics Mark. Good stuff.
