| I was not expecting the story. David stopped by after the NHRA race in Charlotte. He took some pictures and asked me a few questions and then this popped up. Appreciate the comments! |

Sadly that car is no longer in the collection. When I purchased Dad's 72 Pro Stock Demon the seller not only wanted cash, but wanted to take a car that would "hurt me some". So he took the 57 adventurer. He then turned around and flipped it at Barrett Jackson. I'll eventually get another one some day. Would like to get a gold one is possible. |

Location: Echuca | A great article on an even greater collection, one day I hope to get over there to see it in person.
With a strong family connection it has so much more significance than a shed full of old cars and signs, but intertwining family history and your own personal taste towards not just Forward Look, but the rarest or most significant versions thereof makes it a class above all others. |

Awesome! Any updates on the Fuelie D?
55 Vin 1 has to be finished first, which will be this year. The motor is being done for the 58 now, then once 55 is done, work on the 58 will begin |
