I wouldn't put too much into the ad. If You know Marlo, He has a "Canadian" sense of humor which includes being a "purveyor of the unusual" as His ads in the Rule Book and in Bonneville Racing News state. Keep in mind that He imported and sold three Mig 21 Jets after the Soviet Union imploded. After a FBI pilot sliced the side off of Marlo's Lamborghini Quatro upon landing near His shop, He replaced it with second generation Ford GT40. He has always been a wheeler dealer in real estate, airplanes, elephant part's ("yes, elephant part's") and race car's.
I suspect He is on a "fishing" expedition looking for sponsor's, partner's or rich Widow's. Marlo is aging, so is Les Davenport, but they both have SALT in their vein's and a passion for SPEED.

* proud to be a friend for over twenty year's and whom Marlo gave the moniker (totally undeserved) :"One Run Bob"... f*cking Canadian Humor...............................
