Wish'd I was paying attention - I missed this one. Not sure I saw you there, either.

My vote was for the 1930 Minerva. Got a soft spot for them with the Knight sleeve-valve engine, same as Willys-Knight.

That Manta Ray is awesome!  I have never seen one before.  I had to look it up on the net and I found your story about yours Geoff.
Great job!

Aeroman / Rick..

Owned by my buddy Wes Abendroth who sold it at the auction.  Wes is actually staying with me now for a few days before he races this weekend in another of his cars at Amelia.  Very cool car - you have good taste :-)

Best....

MPC...

Thanks for your kind words and glad you like the car.  The design is pretty wild for 1956....

Best....
