Ace-Garageguy Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Always great fun to watch horsepower turn fossil-fuels into smoke and noise.

Yes sir!!! born and raised,Otie's was the place in the day and what more can you say about "Akron" Arlen Vanke and also Akron was the home of Knafel Pontiac Home of the "Tin Indians" .....Met Otis "Otie" Smith when I was very young as my dad would service their office machines and he would always give me a pack of Lance cookies!! and can't forget Art Arfons,my mom knew Art through friends and mom would tell me about this guy named Art and he had a car "Green Monster" well being 4-5 yrs. old I had a totally different vision in my head when I met the man and at all places,the main office at Goodyear where my mom worked in the 60's,at that time he was backed by Firestone but his brother Walt was backed by Goodyear and mom took me to work one afternoon and in walked Art,he was there to meet his brother that I assume had a meeting with execs of something, stopped to just pay a visit to my mom and friend and she introduced me to him and he was just so cool I though and before he left that's when I found out the Green Monster looked not like I thought,he came back in with a shiny Black and White 8x10 photo of it and gave it to me unfortunately we had a house fire many years later and that picture was one of the many things we lost...... Good times..............that's why I love ScottRods,they still kinda give you that 'Good ole days" feel when you go and see them run.......
