There's one of those about twenty miles from me!

Belongs to a fella by the name of Roy King, and boy-oh-boy does he push that thing along!
He restores cars of that era for a living; they come to him from all over the world...last time I was down there he had a Fiat he was working on...was sent to him from Switzerland.
Seems they have an odd-ball thread pitch; so he was lathing each individual nut and bolt.

I met him one day on the Opunake Road in that car, coming the other way...and he would have been around the 80 mph mark.

(Total brain fart; I cannot for the life of me think of the name/marque of that car!
I'll remember it at 2:00 am tomorrow no doubt...man, I must be getting old!)
