There used to be a fantastic website documenting the restoration of GS #002 but the site is now gone unfortunately. It showed great details like how thin & transparent the fiberglass was and how they removed & straightened dents out of the large diameter round tube frame rails. Wish I saved the photos or printed that content on paper.

I remember Richard B. letting my brother and I sit in GS#1 when I was a wee lad. Great memories for sure!!
The significance of this car and the GS program was engrained in my head.

Fell in love with these as a young kid in the late 1970’s when I was given a Motor Trend magazine that had one featured in the “Retrospective” section. #003 was here in the Seattle area for most of the early 2000’s, when Tom and Susan Armstrong owned and raced the heck out of it. RIP Tom, they were a great couple and wonderful ambassadors for the hobby.

Hey Mitch, I hadn't heard anything about Ian's effects on The Revs Museum, so I went to their website and found the following:
Revs Institute will reopen on November 17, 2022, as planned. In October, Revs Institute closed temporarily, in readiness for Hurricane Ian. Fortunately, the buildings and exhibits escaped damage. However, the Revs Institute team has since been preparing to host a joint conference of the World Forum for Motor Museums and the National Association of Automobile Museums in mid-November. Revs Institute is proud to host this important international event. We look forward to reopening, shortly after the conference has ended.
