Accumulator, thanks for the kind words, and yes this one ranked right up there as one of my most interesting projects to date. It makes one really appreciate how far the automobile has evolved over the decades and gives one an appreciation to the fine craftsmanship that was used by builders at the turn of the century. Between my son and I we put a total of close to 20 hrs in bringing this vehicle to a level where it could be shown at Pebble Beach this year.

Thanks DaGonz.......
 
Amazing work David! You are very lucky to be able to work on such a beautiful and rare automobile! I'd take working on something like that over an exotic all day long! ;)





Thanks for sharing!
 
Projects like these are crazy over-restored, but awesome to look at none the less. The mechanicals and technology are fascinating.
