"You can never go fast enough"
Built a TLB clone with a bunch of the items Ruth added but kept the factory a-arm front. Same seats, early chevelle buckets, similar hood scoop, and the lexan sliders. Fun stuff. Car's gone to Iowa somewhere, but I kept the drivetrain....427 of course.
I may have to come for a visit, more to talk to R. Ruth...and wear my Glendale Speed Shop shirt!
Newsome is the guy that Finch sold the AG car to I believe, and he added a bunch of stuff that nobody liked but him. Glad he sold it.
Walt Bailey did a much better job, as good as it gets really, to the TLB camera car. He even got James Taylor to sit in it at a show, very cool indeed!

I thought it would be cool to build a Pro Street version of the '55 and the GTO and do some match racing.
