Over the holidays my brother in law got audibly irritated at my more inebriated other brother in law when he tried to test out those same tread plates on the first one’s new Defender.Quote:

Never did figure out if the new diamond plate was effective, but we were able to find a couple bars on the way home in the snow.
So I stopped at this shop today because there was an early 30s Allard out frontAttachment 413138Attachment 413139
408HP to the wheels! Fucking beautiful. No wait, FUCKING AWESOME! This was next to it Attachment 413140 Meh, not bad haha. Then there were some more like these Attachment 413141Attachment 413142Attachment 413143
So then I went into the showroom and got to meet the owner, none other than Wayne Carini. He was gracious and included me in the conversation going on during a magazine photo shoot then took me into this second showroom and HOLY FUCK there was some insane metal back there. I was so taken with what I was seeing I forgot to take pictures haha.
If you ever get a chance to stop at F40 do it. I also passed a great classic dealer across the street from Lime Rock that I'll stop at next time.
Were allard the first us v8 + euro frame specials?
Is that a 968 RSR lurking in the background?Quote:

There are like 10 Cobra replica companies. Guessing that is Kirkham with the copper.
Yeah. He's working on Jim Farley's and another of the Ford kid's cars right now. That place was mind blowing and David Kirkham was one of the most interesting people I've ever met.Quote:

Who the hell would build a body out of copper?--it weighs a shit ton more than aluminum and is soft.
He said the AL bodies only weigh 100lbs and the copper bodies were around 330lbs. Total AL car was around 2,000lbs.Quote:

It's art with a motor. Same as a $40k, 215 hp motorcycle.
Thanks for sharing, Touring.
It's gotta be more than $40K though?
Well it weighs more so more for your money.
A weathered “patinated” copper would be really unique and might look cool
Saw this at the trailhead yesterday. The want us strong.
