Dave,
I'd like to see a lot more Arduns at LSR meets. By my count there were 4
sets at Speed Week 2001, mine, Monte Osborn's, Ferguson-Travis in the
Pollywog Streamliner, and Hayseed in the 27 Roadster. Who did I forget?
Do you and Rick Cannon, your partner in the VOT, each have a set, or are
you counting his as part yours?
With Ferguson making the repops there's no reason not to have all the
parts to complete a set. What's missing on yours? Are they early or
late?........Doug King
