The bike was designed and built by my uncle, Cal Larson, driven by my cousin Nick Larson.

Here it is on eBay with a few more pictures:

Here's one of Nicks Trophies set on this bike at Bonneville, it is from a couple 190+ runs...

Some bottom feeding scum sucking maggot bought Nicks storage locker with many of his trophies and has been selling them on eBay. Here is one of the maggots links...

This is a great deal for this project. I also have a '53 Studebaker commander on the block that needs a total restoration...for $2k

I remember this bike!  And the rider.  It had very advanced body work and was a really nice design.
