I come not to bury Jorgensen. But, to praise him. Who but Bill Jorgensen would cast a 1/25th scale Granatelli turbine !

Yup

This cutaway is drawn by Bellu - it shows a rear susp feature that is not well defined in the cutaways that I posted earlier this month the upper trailing arm is located mid-way down on the upright rather than sharing the top pivot point with the parallel link ..... this feature keeps the trailing arms parallel ....

HOF resin caster Norman Veber has cast my monocoque - along with the instrument dash and support and the bulkheads - so now I’ll focus on the engine and transaxle and chassis mounting points - and the suspension …

I'm a frequent flyer w the Dept of Corrections CW - please do find those before pix - this is a really great car ...

OMG

I own my own practice - in theory i could retire and let AI do all my work - in practice - won’t do it …. Stubborn old man …

Yup

Turn 4 ?

dialogue was just as bad on an IMAX screen - now who wants to read my script for a biopic on Robert Kubiza !

And no - Tom Hanks would never agree to storm the beaches of Normandy again …. Would he ?

Sorry - super dan - i owe you a movie …

Bainford - you nailed it - if you fed the Days of Thunder script into your laptop AI and asked it to write the F1 script you would get what we got - leave it to Jerry Brockheimer to ruin an F1 movie - the analogies create themselves - Top Gun with wheels instead of wings - only thing missing is the beach volleyball game - wh will we ever get to watch action movies without actors that are almost as old as me - can we have another James Bond movie starring Sean Connery? Scoresese had the good sense not to sent Martin Sheen Dennis Hopper and Robert Duvall back into the Jungle for Apocalypse Now II - There - i’ve said it …

Gentlemen - start your …. Reviews …

Ok Gramps now you’ve done it - Once you are finished with the GS - or while the paint is drying - we must commence “the twin build”. ….

and ... my brain hurts ...

Wow - we need a double build - the natives are restless -

Wow - no A pillar ! thats definitely unique - can’t imagine how expensive that little production feature was !

Granps - try a marking that you dont need to use for your car - you mite want to clear coat the Cady sheet ?

Has anyone built the old Heller Hispano Suiza kit ? Thinking that this is makable with the kit as a start ….

This is a Hispano Suiza chassis - long time member of the Collection …

Just got to Pennsylvania for some vacationing in your lovely summer weather …. Me thinks that the tool magic stuff mite have some other applications … could we dip some strawberries ??

The Royale escaped you must tell me - us - when you plan to go - i’ll introduce you to the research volunteers -

Revs is still owned by the Collier family - - - most of the California collection has stayed intact and add ons drive in - a few every year -
