Speedweeks City of Burbank
« on: July 19, 2012, 08:44:17 PM »
With the big show weeks away, its obvious that we are not going to be able to participate. We having been working towards this event for so long, it's inconceivable that we are not ready. I suppose it was a bit ambitious to think that two old guys ( one really old guy and his stooge) could build this think and put it out the door on time.
The Hill Davis streamliner ran from 1952 thru 1955 so I suppose we will now have celebrate the "era".
We are close and we will get it done. We apologize to our supporters and fans for not being able to celebrate the initial running of this great car. Please hang in there and we will see you on the salt.

p.s.  I have also been trying to finish posting George Hill's story, "Driving the City of Burbank", on our web page.

Sorry to hear that Joe. I was looking forward to reconnecting with Willie.

At least I finally finished posting George Hill's great story to our Other Stuff page at www.bonneville2012.com.
I am sure Willie will hang on till the car is done. He is making pieces every day.
