Gpete: exceptional work. Outstanding. Where did you you source the body?

What is the history behind the three tming watches you mounted on the dash?

The body came from Bryan Bumgarner of Missouri.

I saw the watches (two stop and one regular) in various racing cars, mostly Tag Heuer. I liked the idea and the search was on. These are original Smith and came from England.

They are still running precisely.

Outstanding work. Is the body glass or aluminum?

Evan, what you see is just the icing on the cake. He fabricated the frame himself, and it's truely a work of art. He is a true craftsman of the highest order.
