Dave and Doug stopped by the Bob McDorman show last night before stashing it in the Batcave. Here are a few more shot that I took, with a little help from Doug. I've known Dave for a long time, and he looked like a proud poppa.



Believe it when I tell you, Doug was just as excited as Dave. He can't wait to start taking parts off this car.

Looking in from the back window.



It's an X44 car, but with a deluxe interior.



View from the cockpit.

More...
The paint job is first class, for 1970. With a little love and a lot of buffing, this hood will shine.





Last one, the name says it all.



If I get the All Access Pass to the Batcave, I'll keep everyone posted on the project. When this thing is done, look out!

Dave, those car show indoor photos are definately at the old Cleveland Convention Center which is still standing in Downtown Cleveland on Lakeside Rd. and until just a few years ago housed the Cleveland Auto Rama every year in January. Now the show has moved to the IX Center and is in March...

The photos are way cool!! All I can say is WOW!! It's funny to see how small Norwalk looked back then as compared to what it is today!!

Gotta love that Parma neighborhood shot also!!

This is the coolest. Dave don't restore this car or I may commit suicide.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for checking out my NEW "old race car". I would like to thank Doug Perry for hooking me up with this one, he is the go to guy if your looking for these rare cars, especially the history on them. With Doug's "CSI" tactics we virtually knew all the history on this car before we got to the auction , and that was in a matter of days. Thanks again Doug. I would also like to thank the original owner whom we met at the estate auction (2nd owner died), His name is Doug E. ,a great guy and he will obviously be a wealth of knowlege on the car since it remains almost 100% as he built it back in 1970. I will have the car "RACE READY" at next years SCR and hope to have him there to meet everyone and let him take it down the track. He also has video of the car back in the day that I would love to share with all of you , I will see what I can do on that.
Dave
